Hunky actor, Thembinkosi Mthembu has taken Mzansi by storm.
He is known on the hit series, The River, as the broody Mabutho who started a red hot love affair with Tumi, which caused her divorce to Lindani.
Thembinkosi Mthembu recently posted a shirtless picture frolicking in the pool, giving them ladies heart attacks
One of the ladies is esteemed actress, Masasa Mbangeni who is known for her role as Thembeka Shezi on Scandal.
Masasa Mbangeni joked that she got pregnant just from looking at the photo.
We thank the acting gods for finally noticing Thembinkosi, because he wasn’t always on our radar.
The actor’s story, is one of the ‘rags to riches’, scenarios.
He graduated with a diploma in Drama and Production Studies from Durban University of Technology in 2017 and came to Joburg to try and pursue his acting career.
It wasn’t easy for him to get roles, so he did some odd jobs here and there.
He also worked at Checkers then at Cell C as a dancer.
Thembinkosi’s first acting gig was on The Republic as Junior.
The producers of The Republic, Phathu Makwarela and Gwydion Beynon, who also produce The River,were impressed with him on the role, that they eventually created a role for him on The River as Mabutho.
Speaking to True Love magazine, Thembinkosi confessed that at first he was nervous and terrified with his role as Mabutho and it affected his acting, but eventually he grew comfortable with the role
My fear and nerves got the better of me, and it showed on-screen. But as time went by, I became more confident, and affirmed that it wasn’t by luck that I got this job. It was because I’m talented, and deserve it” he said.
Looks like we have to petition for more shirtless Mabutho scenes on The River.
