Magnificent!!! There can never be another! He took his acting abilities to great heights. I wish I had the chance to meet him as well as having my father meet him, he would have enjoyed it.

Henry Cele is the quintessential Shaka Zulu. His multi-faceted and mult-dimensional portrayal of the redoubtable Shaka Zulu, was electrifying and breathtaking. Henry Cele elevated his character; his thirst for vengeance and indignation as an illegitimate child, exacerbated by an increasingly miserable childhood, coupled with his often visceral, scathing, callous and conflicted emotionality in his adulthood, with nuanced traces of heartfelt compassion and humanity made for a very complex and powerful imagery. He was definitely one of my favorite actors growing up. I miss him. May his soul rest in absoulte peace and my sympathies to his family for their great loss.

great actor as a kid i grew up watching shaka zulu evey year and i finally located the real dvd and cant stop watching it i try to show eveyone i know who has'nt seen it it just makes me proud of a legacy i could only hope to have known. R.I.P.

Touched many, many lives. Lived in the Caribbean and found him a source of inspiration and pride. Long Live Henry Cele!
