Award-winning South African TV and radio presenter Zanele Potelwa is currently in London, United Kingdom, for the exciting press tour of Sinners, a new vampire horror movie directed by Black Panther creator Ryan Coogler.
Zanele, known for hosting popular shows like Hotspot Selimathunzi, Expresso Show, and 5FM’s afternoon drive show, was among the stars who graced the red carpet at the film’s European premiere. The movie, Sinners, is set in the 1930s and is Ryan Coogler’s first solo project where he both writes and directs.
While walking the red carpet, Zanele proudly represented South African fashion in an afro-futuristic outfit by Pan-African fashion label Imprint ZA. Her bold and beautiful look caught the attention of many, and she later shared the moment on social media.
“A London Premiere moment in @imprint_za with @warnerbros_sa. The compliments I got in this dress… (and thank you for helping me decide to do off the shoulder my Champions. And thank you Jesus for an amazing night),” she wrote.
Zanele also had the chance to meet and mingle with international celebrities like Black Panther star Letitia Wright, Grammy-winning singer H.E.R., British actress Adjoa Andoh, Wunmi Mosaku, and actor-filmmaker Daniel Kaluuya.
Also in attendance was fellow South African media personality Kim Jayde, who turned heads in a stunning red outfit. Kim captured her own special moments at the premiere, including a photo with rising Hollywood actor Miles Caton.
Kim Jayde shared her excitement on Instagram, writing:
“Imagine walking the same red carpet as @michaelbjordan @haileesteinfeld & Ryan Coogler bo 6, Look at God! Repping for Africa.
The @sinnersmovie European Premiere with @warnerbros_sa – an UNFORGETTABLE IMAX experience – you gotta go see this film!! Plus I made so many new friends!!! So much love to @sunafricagroup @warnerbros_sa for the adventure of a lifetime!”
The event was more than just a movie premiere—it was a celebration of African talent on a global stage, with Zanele and Kim proudly flying the South African flag high in London.
