The actress has been considered for an international nomination which is the Emmys.
This is for her outstanding portrayal as Adaku in Netflix’s Fist of Vengeance movie. She is on the 2022 Primetime EMMYS ballot.
Thusi is contending against prolific Hollywood stars like Dakota Fanning & Uma Thurman.
183 actresses vie for the nod in her category, which is the Best Supporting Actress in a TV Movie/Limited Series.
This is not Pearl Thusi’s first international glory, she has been making waves in Hollywood and Mzansi couldn’t be more proud.
Back in 2016, Pearl starred alongside Bollywood beauty Priyanka Chopra in US hit series Quantico.
The beauty portrayed Dayana Mampas, an accomplished human rights lawyer who came to America as a teenager and has now been recruited by the CIA.
Quanti Wikia described the role as a “driven, disciplined, type-A lawyer working at her parents’ Boston firm who struggles to fit in”.
She murdered this character and made all of us very proud. A South African raising our flag super high.
Way to go Queen Sono. Bring that Emmy home!!!
