Stream Youngins Season 2 on Showmax
Get to know more about Youngins from star Ayakha Ntunja, who plays Amo.
As one of the 10 most streamed show on Showmax since its relaunch, Youngins should be on your watchlist. The youth drama series follows a group of students at Olifantsfontein High, who’re also known as the Olifants Five.
When the gang returns for a second term and Season 2, they find out that they’ve become overnight heroes which kicks off a never-ending trail of drama and scandals that fans have come to love them for.
Get to know about the season ahead from Ayakha Ntunja, who plays Amo, a sweet yet fiercely determined boarder from rural KwaZulu-Natal.
What was it like reuniting with the Olifants Five for Season 2? It was great! It’s always fun when we’re together as the Olifants Five. For me, that friendship is the one thing holding a lot of things together at the school. Despite everything happening, we still understand each other and come together.
How does Amo evolve in Season 2? Coming into the new season, Amo has grown a backbone. She knows where to position herself, and at the same time, she knows how to stand up for herself. The big issue in Season 1 was her being pushed left, right, and centre without understanding the ins and outs of Olifantsfontein. Now, as she enters Season 2, she’s getting the hang of things and starts to understand what it’s all about.
What have you learnt from portraying Amo? One thing I’ve learned from playing Amo is how outspoken and outgoing she is as a person. Despite everything happening in her life, she’s still trying to escape her own world by helping everyone else. I think we often do that as a coping mechanism and to make friends.
What makes you excited about this season? I'm really excited to see how people will perceive each character, and I'm also looking forward to everyone experiencing the incredible scenes we've filmed for Season 2. There are some moments that left me in awe, and I can't wait for the audience to witness them. The show just keeps getting better and better.
