BREAKING. Egoli movie going back in the past?
You're reading it here first.
Okay, so here's what I'm hearing about the Egoli movie set for June.
Or wait. First this. Everything I write, everything you read here on this blog, are always, always facts. I'm a journalist and I verify and check everything. So I have to tell you that the following blog entry at this point is really just a rumour: possibly true, possibly partially true, possibly not even true at all.
I didn't check it, nor wanted to - and at this stage I doubt that anyone would officially tell me anything.
Today I wanted to tell you about those additionally filmed scenes that were filmed but never made to really air just to throw people off, and M-Net and Franz Marx Productions declined. So I doubt they'll spill or confirm anything regarding the movie.
Anyway, with the final new TV episode of Egoli going out last night on M-Net, there is also the Egoli movie set for the big screen in June. Last night at my place I had some people over, we had champagne and snacks and we watched the Egoli finale. One of my visitors and good friends are also a great source and has never been wrong.
So, he says about the Egoli movie that it will start in the past, about 20 years ago, before the events in the soapie to give some never-seen background and perspective on things that occured and will be relevant to the plot, then jump back to the present. Interesting . . .
