Responding to Tyler’s tweet, Modiselle encouraged him to go ahead with the film and asked to be cast. She shared her accolades and stressed the importance of showing diversity. “Yes you should & can you explore casting me (I’ve won awards for best actress for an international short film), so you can show diversification & Inclusivity of a black narrative not often explored. With all due respect Sir @tylerperry,” she tweeted.

Fans of the actress have been sending tweets to Mr Perry to give Refilwe a chance. While in an audition earlier today, the actress was asked about a moment in her life when she felt most included and she revealed that it was recently, when the masses endorsed her tweet about featuring in the new Tyler Perry film.

“Today I was asked in an audition interview. ‘When was a moment I felt the most included. I said for me honestly, it’s the first time my own people are supporting my tweet to Tyler Perry,” she tweeted. “The response has been overwhelming. THANK YOU Loudly. I pray the message gets to him.”
The model has had a great start to 2021 which could be an indication of greater things to come. In April she graced the cover of UK-based magazine I-M (Intelligent Magazine).
