Fatal Seduction Season 2 – Netflix

Lust, betrayal, obsession. Fatal Seduction returns with a smouldering new season. Acclaimed actor Warren Masemola joins as Minister Vilikazi, a ruthless Police Minister vying for the Deputy President position. With secrets as deep as his ambition, he will stop at nothing to get what he wants.

Tina Redman and Daanyaal Ally bring fresh energy to the story, making this season of dark erotica and psychological suspense impossible to miss.

Hunting Jessica Brok – Cinemas

Looking for a film that will keep you on the edge of your seat? Hunting Jessica Brok is an action-thriller led by Danica De La Rey Jones as Jessica Brok, a mother turned warrior fighting her way through life-threatening dangers to protect her daughter.

Jessica Brok breaks the typical action heroine mould. She is defensive, instinctive, and raw, fighting in a cardigan rather than a superhero suit. Danica says audiences will connect with her because she represents resilience, humanness, and survival in a world that is often unforgiving.
