TNT:
ALTERED IDENTITY
They say, don’t judge a book by its cover – but for this month’s TNT special, let’s add, don’t judge a character until you’ve watched the entire movie. This July, TNT is bringing you all those movies with characters that you will get to understand as you delve deep into the flm. Who am I really? Where do I come from? Who should I trust? are the main questions the characters constantly ask themselves because no one is who you think they are. TNT brings four whopping channel premieres. In Avengement, Scott Adkins plays an escaped convict out for revenge. Guy Pearce plays a professor who may be a killer in Spinning Man. In The Boondock Saints, two Irish Catholic brothers become vigilantes and wipe out Boston’s criminal underworld in the name of God, and Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead ofers a classy, classic heist-gone-wrong drama.

BETTER TOGETHER
A particular African idiom says if you want to go fast, go alone but if you want to go far, go together. This July, TNT will shine the spotlight on teamwork, and no matter how tough it may be at times, and even though it may be unpleasant for many, it is the best way to get the job done. To what lengths will you go to prove that you are worthy of marrying the girl of your dreams? In Ride Along, Ben Barber (Kevin Hart) must do tag along with his law enforcement brother-in-law, James Payton (Ice Cube), in the hopes of winning his approval to marry his sister. Lines are blurred in Bulletproof as undercover detective Jack Carter (Damon Wayans) starts to develop a genuine friendship with Archie Moses (Adam Sandler), the man he has been tasked to annihilate. Catch these titles and more on TNT this July.

MY CARTOON FRIEND

TUNE IN: MONDAYS TO FRIDAYS @ 16:15 CAT
KEEP CALM…YOUR BEST FRIEND IS HERE!
Cartoons are cool, and friends are essential, so having a cartoon character as a friend should be super-cool, right? Errr … not always! After experimenting with some new and unknown animation software, a young African animator, Lwazi, mistakenly exports his animated character into the real world. With no knowledge of how to reverse the whole thing, Lwazi fnds himself stuck with a new and unusual friend, Themba. Themba is witty, sharp with his tongue, quick on his feet, and almost certainly has an answer to everything – even if he’s wildly inaccurate. The two have an entertaining and adventurous everyday life together as Themba tries to learn how to ft into the real world. Created especially for Cartoon Network Africa, Lwazi Msipha wrote, animated, and guided the production without a big established studio. The 2019 CN Creative Lab competition winner is also a self-taught designer, and school taught 3D animator. You don’t want to miss this exhilarating mix of real, live-action and animation comedy, only on Cartoon Network this July!
