Wright Ngubeni 'ready to give people second instalment of myself'
First stepping into television in the 1990s at the tender age of five, former child star Wright Ngubeni is convinced now more than ever that he was destined to be in front of the camera.
The 34-year-old presenter and actor launched his career on SABC 1's Kideo and YoTV. But it's his role as Jonathan in Mzansi's longest running daily drama Generations that made his a household name.
Ngubeni later transitioned as host of Big Up and Love Back. In between that he has had acting stints in Street Life, Rhythm City, Thuli No Thulani, Heist and more recently Netflix film Kedibone, playing opposite former SMag cover star Natasha Thahane.
In recent years he has kept a low profile focusing on a few shows, but the multi-hyphenate star is back in front of the small screen with a new reality TV show, kuRuff, a new joint venture by Showmax and Moja Love.
