Media commentator Phil Mphela has been vindicated after all. DStv has announced the cancelation of the popular telenovela The Queen.
In a tweet days back, Phil had announced that Brenda Ngxoli is no longer part of the cast of The Queen because she’s unable to agree with the production on her salary.
In reaction to Phil’s tweet, Brenda had noted that the commentator was lying. She was dismissive of his claims.
Her position was affirmed by Ferguson Film’s casting director Lesedi Ferguson, who called out Phil for trying to ruin someone’s career. At the same time, DStv had refused to reply to inquiries on whether the series had been canceled.
The platform merely promised to release a statement later in the week. And it did just that. the network not only announced the cancelation of the Queen, but it also noted that 1Magic’s Lingashoni is coming to an end as well.
The end wouldn’t be immediately, however. The Queen will have its final episode on January 13, 2023, and Lingashoni will have its final episode on March 16, 2023. See the full statement below.
The confirmation of the cancelation has left many viewers sad. The Queen, in particular, was a great hit with the audience in Mzansi.
