You've seen him mentioned in the
latest Scandal! teasers, now scooch in close for the details...
Former Yizo Yizo star and Nomzamo creator Makhaola Ndebele will be portraying the role of new character Reggie, full name Reginald Pheko.
Here's a close-up on him, taken from the casting brief from when the production cast the role:
Reggie is good looking and old-fashioned, between the ages of 40 and 45, and he's Khanyi-Jewel's art tutor.
He is a gentleman to just about everyone. He is measured, neatly dressed, and disciplined.
He is retired and is wealthy but he chooses to live a very modest life. After retirement, he decided to take up a hobby he has always been interested in, painting.
He now teaches children to draw and has a great relationship with kids.
He's been through a lot but the battle scars are hardly visible. Instead they’ve refined him into a polite man who's quite the gentleman.
He debuts this Monday 31 October.
Flash fact >> Makhaola's repertoire includes the role of Benny on vintage Generations, Archie on e.tv's Scoop Schoombie and most recently, the starring role of Tiny on the Mzansi Magic drama series Umbuso.
