CASTING NEWS: Mohale joins #RhythmCity
Mohale Motaung-Mhlongo has joined the
@etv soapie to play Kudzo — a fly by night investor.
According to Phil Mohale will only appear for a few episodes, meaning he’s more like a guest star.
However many tweeps questioned his acting qualifications as they seem to be uncomfortable with him being part of the soapie.
Some feel like Mohale is just in the show riding on Somizi’s fame.
They also feel its a slight to students who have gone to acting school and are looking for breakout roles but don’t have the right connections to make it.
Here are some of the comments:
“He was a teacher not so long ago now he’s an actor I won’t be surprised if he’s a rapper in December”
“I won’t be suprised if Kaizer Chiefs unveil him as their new Player for the coming season”
“Imagine taking expensive acting classes only to miss out on a role that’s gonna be given to Mohale”
“I understand that and I’m aware how the industry as a whole is shifting priorities when it comes to hiring. People aren’t getting hired mainly because of talent, but because of how much influence they have. It’s an unfortunate shift and a huge cost to the sustainability of art”
