Renowned star Nomzamo Mbatha returns as both executive producer and in her iconic role as Queen Nandi, leading a stellar cast in the concluding chapter of Africa’s first epic drama.

“The pressure is high. Shaka iLembe has been a beloved show for the past two seasons and the project of my career,’ shared Mbatha.

“This third season is the culmination of a world that African viewers have found deep love and admiration for.

“It builds on the legacy of African television while taking audiences on a journey from an all-conquering reign, to sweeping love stories, to the founding of another nation and the arrival of colonists. This is a triumphant telling of Nguni history on an epic scale.”
