Comic Con Africa is thrilled to announce that acclaimed actor Dan Fogler will be joining fans for the 2025 edition of the festival, taking place from 28 to 31 August at the Johannesburg Expo Centre, Nasrec.
Dan has had a long and varied career, but perhaps fans will know Dan best for his starring role as Jacob Kowalski in the Harry Potter spin-off film series Fantastic Beasts. Dan also acted in the film Balls of Fury as Randy Daytona, and voiced Zeng in Kung Fu Panda.
In TV, Dan’s portrayal of Luke in The Walking Dead was a fan favourite, and he recently captivated audiences as Lennie Wilson in the Netflix series Eric. Dan also acted a variety of voices in the six-time Emmy Award winning series Robot Chicken, and has also voice acted in the LEGO Dimensions game.
Fogler will appear at Comic Con Africa from Friday 29 August to Sunday 31 August.
He will bring his signature charisma and talent to this year’s show, promising fans an experience they won’t want to miss. During Comic Con Africa 2025, fans can look forward to interactive experiences with Dan.
