South Africa's first modern Western series, Outlaws, is the brainchild of Tshedza Pictures' Phathu Makwarela and Gwydion Beynon. Outlaws, which is Tshedza's second Showmax Original after Adulting, features newcomers Lehlohonolo Mayeza and Nirvana Nokwe-Mseleku as lead characters, Leruo Ts’eole and Sihle Biyela. The cast also includes familiar faces such as Siyabonga Shibe and Mmabatho Mogomotsi, along with notable talents like Nolwazi Shange, Mnqobi Kunene, and Thembinkosi Mthembu. Outlaws explores the prevalent issue of cattle theft in South Africa, offering a unique backdrop seldom depicted in popular culture. In distinguishing Outlaws from their previous works, Phathu notes the shift in focus from predominantly strong female leads to the inclusion of powerful male characters. The show, characterised by intense action sequences including gun battles, car chases, and horseback pursuits, adds a dynamic male energy to Tshedza's repertoire. Outlaws explores family feuds, forbidden love, livestock theft, and secrets. Today, we have some cast members, Mnqobi Kunene (who plays Kwanele Dlamini), KeketsoMpitso (who plays Tlali), Mmabatho Mogomotsi (who plays Moretlo Tseole) and Lehlohonolo Mayeza (who plays Leruo Tseole) join Lerato Mbele for the conversation.
