Former “The River” actor Lunga Mofokeng is returning to Mzansi daily screens with a new role on SABC 1’s educational drama series “Skeem Saam”.
Mofokeng steps into the world of Turf as the character of Qhomane, also known as Mr Q, a new, young, charming, and effortlessly confident teacher joining the staff at Turf High School.
On the surface, Mr Q is everything a school would hope for, sharp, articulate, and inspiring, but as with many things in Turf, appearances can be deceiving.
“Qhomane is a fascinating character to step into. On the surface, he’s confident and composed, but there’s a lot happening beneath that. I’ve enjoyed exploring those layers and bringing someone like Mr Q into the world of Turf,” said Mofokeng.
Mr Q arrives in Turf with ease, confidence and a quiet authority that quickly sets him apart.
As he finds his footing at Turf High, his presence begins to register in ways that are difficult to ignore. There is something about Mr Q that invites curiosity and raises questions, leaving those around him wondering what his arrival truly means for the school and the community.
His arrival brings subtle shifts to familiar dynamics, prompting quiet adjustments within the school and beyond. As new interactions take shape, it becomes clear that his presence will not go unnoticed.
Mofokeng gained popularity through his role as a gay man, Andile Dikana, on the award-winning telenovela “The River.”
Mofokeng’s first appearance on "Skeem Saam" as Qhomane is on Monday, February 9 at 19:30 on SABC 1.
