SA’s favourite prankster is back

Leon Schuster is back with a new side-splitting comedy but you’ll have to wait a while before you can watch it on the big screen….

Schuks! Your Country Needs You sees Schuster going back to this candid-camera roots. The film is set for release on 29 November.

The movie co-stars long-time Schuster collaborator Alfred ‘Shorty’ Ntombela, stage and screen comic icon Rob van Vuuren as well as newcomer Laré Birk.

Returning to his hidden camera formula for the first time since the box-office smash-hit Schuks Tshabalala, Schuster is sure that Schuks! Your Country Needs You will resonate with the South African audiences.

 “I am especially excited to deliver some much-needed laughter to South African audiences,” he says. “We’re about as culturally diverse as a country can be, but we all share a common sense of humour - and if making people laugh means I need to get ‘klapped’ a few times, it’s worth it!” he says.

The film is produced by Andre Schotlz and directed by Gray Hofmeyr.
