James Sithole has opened up about getting to play one of the most hated characters on a Mzansi tv show. The actor recently joined the cast of Scandal as Mdala the ex-con who has come back to conduct some shady business deals.
TimesLIVE reports that James Sithole has absolutely been enjoying playing a character as intriguing as Mdala on Scandal. The actor says that he was inspired by the likes of Sello Maake ka Ncube when thinking of ways to portray this character.
"I think people will love to hate him because of his charm and his looks. He's able to lure people in and seal business deals without anyone questioning anything. I sometimes get away a lot of trouble because of my innocent look.
The same goes for Mdala and I love his style and the fact that he is way too calculative and doesn't spill blood like any other thug we know. He deals with the psychology of mankind until one gives in."
