Let's make this birthday one to remember.

53 years old (Born on May 13, 1971)

Happy Birthday, Fana Mokoena! From commanding the screen as General Bizimungu in "Hotel Rwanda" to battling zombies alongside Brad Pitt in "World War Z," you've proven that no role is too intense—or undead—for your incredible talent. Whether you're portraying complex historical figures or navigating apocalyptic chaos, you always deliver performances worth celebrating.

Here's hoping your birthday is filled with more excitement than a scene from "Machine Gun Preacher" and more inspiration than Mandela's journey in "Long Walk to Freedom." Keep dazzling us with your versatility and charisma—after all, not everyone can say they've survived both political drama and zombie invasions!
