Chasing the Sun 2, a documentary unpacking the Springboks’ successful 2023 Rugby World Cup campaign, will premiere on Sunday, 24 March.

The original Chasing The Sun is compelling, raw, human and emotional five-part documentary series which tells the story of the Springboks and their journey to the pinnacle of international rugby, the Rugby World Cup in 2019. 

Earlier this year, SuperSport announced that a sequel of the documentary will be released following South Africa’s 2023 Rugby World Cup triumph in France.

Chasing The Sun will tell the tale of how the Springboks went on to clinch the Webb Ellis Cup for a record-breaking fourth time in history, making them just the second Test team ever to win back-to-back titles.

He goes on to explain that his charges overcame the curveballs life three at them and defied the odds stacked against them to clinch a second successive Rugby World Cup title.
