Alles Malan S1-2
The long-awaited second season of kykNET’s popular family drama Alles Malan is now available to binge on Showmax.
It’s been three years since we last caught up with the Malan family, and though time has marched on, they’re still as close as ever. But there’s trouble brewing on the business front. As Season 2 opens, the Malans’ eldest son, Frik (Ivan Zimmerman), is approached by criminal elements looking to use the family business for their schemes. On the home front, Frik’s son, Freek (Matheo Olivier) has a new love interest, while Elani (Greteli Fincham) faces heartache, and Nico (Sean-Marco Vorster) and his wife, Lee-Anne (Nicole Fortuin), are expecting a baby.
Veteran actors Albert Maritz (Dwaalster, Poppie Nongena, Buurtwag) and Elsabé Daneel return as Derik and Brenda Malan, and Nadia Valvekens is back as Freek’s wife, Tessa. The new season was once again filmed in Paarl and Wellington and directed by SAFTA- and Silwerskerm winners René and Corné van Rooyen (Vaselintjie), who co-wrote Season 2 with Leon Kruger (Waterfront, Die Byl) and SAFTA nominee Retief Scholtz (Dwaalster).
