Sophie Okonedo on playing the complex wife of South Africa鈥檚 first black president
Sophie Okonedo is starring as Winnie Mandela in a one-off biopic on 成人快手4. The fact-based drama follows Mrs Mandela from the 1950s to 1990, when her husband was released from prison after 27 years. It charts her progress from country girl to politicised fighter against apartheid. How did a Brit like Sophie feel about playing South Africa鈥檚 most controversial character? How easy was it to get the right balance in portraying Winnie Mandela鈥檚 fight against apartheid, but also her convictions for kidnapping, fraud and theft? And how did she manage to act the part of a woman as she aged through three decades?
Mrs Mandela is on 成人快手4 on 25 January
