THE Queen actress Zandile Msutwana has been forced to take a break from the show following an injury on set.
According to a statement from Mzansi Magic, Zandile, who plays the role of Vuyiswa Maake, sustained an undisclosed injury while on set and unfortunately cannot carry out her duties.
She has now been booked off to recover well at home.
On the show, Vuyiswa is pretty much the boss of her own life. She is smart, driven and an intelligent policewoman – a straight talker who will not let anyone walk all over her. She becomes Jerry’s confidant and journeys with him through reconciling with his son.
The producers of the show have decided to find someone to play the role of Vuyiswa in Zandile’s absence.

Thembisa will start gracing the small screen from 19 April.
“We have no doubt that with Thembisa’s immense talent and skills, along with the support and guidance she has received from Msutwana, the character of Vuyiswa Maake will continue to steal the hearts of the viewers.
“We are very excited for Mdoda-Nxumalo and thankful to her for taking this gigantic challenge with so much grace. We wish Msutwana a speedy recovery and look forward to her return soonest,” read the statement.
