GUMBALL IS SPEAKING ISIZULU — RIGHT NOW! As Cartoon Network Africa Makes Gumball’s World Sound Like Home

Elmore, the quirky, animated town of Gumball, has always been wonderfully weird, and now it’s proudly local too! Starting this month, The Wonderfully Weird World of Gumball is available in isiZulu on Cartoon Network, giving kids the joy of hearing Gumball, Darwin, and the gang in South Africa’s most widely spoken language.

 

Gumball’s jokes, Darwin’s heart, Anais’s smarts, and Richard’s silliness, all now voiced in isiZulu, transform the chaos into something wonderfully familiar. With Elmore’s everyday madness sounding magically new - from schoolyard shenanigans to family meltdowns - the laughs now echo with a whole new rhythm.

And because toggling languages should be as fun as the show itself, Cartoon Network has dropped a cute tutorial video showing kids how to switch to isiZulu. Think of it as a mini adventure: click, toggle, boom, suddenly Gumball is speaking your language.

MultiChoice is currently embroiled in a carriage dispute with Warner Bros. Discovery affecting Cartoon Network and 11 other channels. As noted, they're at risk of possible termination on both DStv and GOtv platforms across Africa.
