John Kani, guest star at the Sotigui Awards 2018
The actor who played the role of T’Chaka in “Captain America: Civil War” and “Black Panther”, is announced at the awards ceremony scheduled for December 01st in Ouagadougou…
The 3rd edition of the Sotigui Awards will be held on December 01st, 2018 in Ouagadougou. The event, presented by the Sotigui Academy of African Cinematographic Arts and the diaspora, is going to have a special touch this year, thanks to a significant presence. John Kani, actor, director and playwright of South African origin is the guest of honour.
The awards ceremony of the actors for African cinema and its diaspora heats hard by unrolling its red carpet to one of the most successful African actors. In fact, John Kani incarnated the role of Black Panther’s father in the super production of the Marvel Studios “Captain America: Civil war”. If this performance is cited as a reference, it is simply because this film has been a great success to many audiences around the world. It generated entries of more than 401 million million six weeks after its release, only in the United States.
However, John Kani at 75 , has about 40 years of career in cinema. His activism for a non-racial South Africa through his works has earned him many prizes.
