Inside The Star-Studded Premier Of Happiness Ever After – Photos

The premier of Happiness Ever After took place this past weekend and it a star-studded event.

Happiness Ever After is the sequel to the highly successful film Happiness is a Four-Letter Word – the glamorous Happiness friends are back close to four years after we left them.

This season we join them for another journey of self-discovery and re-evaluation as life throws new challenges at them. The premier was attended by the likes of Lasizwe Dambuza, Khanyi Mbau, Pasi Koetle, Thembisa Mdoda Nxumalio and other local celebs.

The creator of the film recently expressed how excited she is that it is coming back.

“I’m super-excited about Happiness Ever After and being able to continue the uber-relatable story of sisterhood, friendship and love. Sequels are always difficult because the pressure is that much higher, but they also offer something different and exciting – and the opportunity to land the film on a global service like Netflix is its own reward. It is my sincere hope that the film resonates with audiences, and they fall back in love with their favourites and the new faces too,” said Bongiwe Selane.

The film which is based on a novel (Happiness is a four letter word) by Nozizwe Cynthia Jele stars Khanyi Mbau who plays the role of a trophy wife, Zaza, Mmabatho Montsho who plays a perfectionist lawyer, Nandi and Renate Stuurman who plays serial dater, Princess.

The opening of the romdrama saw 45 000 attendances, grossed R2 371 782 in its first weekend and ranked top 3 after Deadpool and Vir Altyd. The romdrama was the best performing film as it beat international releases in its first weekend back in 2016. It beat films such as 13 Hours, Secret soldiers of Benghazi, Hail Caesar!, 50 Shades of Black and Trumbo.

Ster Kinekor’s CEO, Mario Dos Santos had this to say about the film: “The opening weekend’s results for the film are simply overwhelming not only from local content perspective but also in comparison to Hollywood content. Rewarding for the whole Happiness is a Four -Letter Word team that great films get a positive response from audiences,”

The film is set to premiere on 12 November 2021 and we look forward to it.
