Chasing the Sun 2
Chasing the Sun 2 – A Story for South Africa offers fans front-row seats to the Springbok’s awe-inspiring journey to their fourth Rugby World Cup victory – a historic first for any country in the world.
The five-part documentary series features never-before-seen footage, interviews with more than 30 players and coaches, and all the highlights from the Springboks’ nail-biting journey to the final.
The Supersport and SA Rugby co-production, brought to you by Toyota, Betway, and Spur, has almost as much to live up to as the Springboks did, after the first instalment won the SAFTA for Best Made-For-TV Documentary, among other accolades, and was hailed as “the greatest rugby documentary ever made” by Rugbypass.
Chasing the Sun 2 is again produced by T+W, who were nominated for an International Emmy last year for Two Sides, the story of the British and Irish Lions tour to South Africa in 2021, during the Covid pandemic.
Chasing the Sun, about the Boks’ journey to winning the World Cup in 2019, is also ready to binge-watch on Showmax.
