The actress has been in the acting industry for so long now, but many of us know her as an actress. But there is another part of her we didn’t know: she is also a casting director, writer, and producer.

 

 

Following her exit on etvScandal, Shange Ngubeni revealed that she will continue as a casting director in the new season of the Mzansi Magic telenovela Umkhokha: The Curse. She also has other productions lined up that are yet to be announced. The actress is dreaming big; she also revealed she was a producer and casting director for a few shows, but she was not ready to get her credits. After exiting Scandal, the talented actress is now more focused on being the director, producer, and writer than being an actress.Although Nolwazi had become a household name because of her acting skills, she still ventured into behind-the-scenes work. She became a casting director for numerous TV shows and films, such as Rhythm City, Nothing for Mahala, MTV Shuga, and AboMama, to name a few. She also worked as a Casting Director and as a Business Developer for a Global Tech company.

Recently, entertainment commentator Phil Mphela revealed that Nolwazi Shange Ngubeni is the cast director of My Brothers Keeper, a new telenovela show that replaced Gomora.
