Shaka Zulu is a ten-part television biopic produced in 1986 by the South African Broadcasting Corporation that stars Henry Cele, Edward Fox, Robert Powell, and Trevor Howard in a story about one of tribal Africa's most famous and inspiring figures, Shaka Zulu, the brilliant king who pursued a quest for a unified African Empire. This story is pieced together from the collected writings of 19th century British traders who dealt with the visionary tribal leader. Shaka's innovations in weapons and military strategy, as well as his keen political sense, made the Zulu nation the most powerful tribe of its time. Shaka Zulu is widely considered to be the greatest commander and military strategist in Africa's history, earning comparisons to leaders like Napoleon Bonaparte. Henry Cele turns in a riveting performance as King Shaka, having previously performed the role in the stage version of the story. Shaka Zulu is a gripping portrayal of the life and times of one of Africa's most famous and revolutionary leaders.MORE
