How we cover South African actresses

We prioritise verified sources: official press releases, statements from agents or production companies, festival lineups, and direct interviews. When a story is still developing, we label it clearly and update it as facts emerge. That means you get timely info without the guesswork.

Expect content across formats — short news items, profile pieces, career timelines and coverage of awards like the SAFTAs and international festivals such as the Durban International Film Festival. We also flag where to watch new films and series: local platforms (Showmax, e.tv), streaming releases, and international distributors.
