Stars in Nedbank ads

Two new Nedbank TV commercials, part of the 'Things don't just happen on their own' campaign created by Net#work BBDO ad agency flighted on 26 October 2010. The ads featured South African actor and screenwriter Sharlto Copley and actor, director and playwright John Kani deliberating on how people fool themselves out of taking the action that will make things happen in their lives and the world they live in.

Copley is filmed walking the streets of downtown Johannesburg at night musing on the fact that we can always find something else to wait for before we take action; with the commercial closing with a reference to his breakthrough role in the Oscar nominated movie District 9. It was on the back of that success that Copley landed the part of HM Murdoch in the A Team and is now rumoured to be appearing in men In Black 3.

Tony award winning actor and playwright Kani is filmed on location in the Knysna forest, homage to his long involvement with the Green Trust and a reflection of his desire to make South Africa a better place.
