# “Smile A Bit Lah” — M’sians Spooked By Maszlee Malik’s Latest Drama Poster

It seems like former Education Minister and now ex-Simpang Renggam MP Dr. Maszlee Malik has found a calling outside of politics.

Just today, he posted a [photo](https://www.facebook.com/DrMaszleeMalik/posts/pfbid0ueEx1a6aPFgTywowCWHmEZ7SExJRVLsTNYC7SsUcBneG28x36Fci5k3mrJnnBbg4l) of him clad in a white singlet along with a sinister look on his official Facebook account.

## Starring in drama series

According to the photo caption, Maszlee is set to appear on the latest drama series *'Kudeta'*, which premiered on Astro on Nov 20.

He also urged Malaysians to watch the drama on Astro, Astro GO, and Astro Ria.

> **Watch Kudeta from 20 November onwards via Astro On Demand and Astro GO every Sunday or via Astro Ria on Monday at 9pm.**

Maszlee is no stranger to the acting industry, where he previously appeared in a [Malaysian version](https://weirdkaya.com/mazlee-malik-to-star-in-msian-version-of-squid-game/) of the hit K-drama series *'Squid Game'*.

## 'Smile a bit lah!'

The post has since garnered 4.5k reactions at the time of writing, with netizens feeling a bit spooked to see Maszlee's sombre look and told him to loosen up.

***"Dr., even though you lost (in GE15), don't be so serious. It's scary to look at. You will always be in the hearts of educators."***
