South Africa Television Icon Darlington Michaels has passed away on 13th September 2024. He was born on 1 August 1970. He was known for his popular character on Isidingo as Georgie “Papa G” Zamdela. Darlington was admitted to Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital in Soweto earlier this month struggling to breath.
Michaels joined Isidingo in 1998. He also appeared in How to ruin Christmas, The road, Sabc 1’s drama Gazlam, Vula Vula as Gab and in Mzansi Magic’s sitcom Chandies in 2012 as conman Daliza.
Tributes keep pouring in for the legendary Actor on all social media platforms.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to the Michael’s family, friends and fans. May his soul rest in peace.
Michaels first joined Isidingo when it debuted in 1998, and his character became a fan favourite, known for his Tsotsi taal, flashy wardrobe, and extravagant personality.
Michaels’ career, however, began on the stage under the mentorship of renowned theatre director Gibson Kente.In 1984, he wrote and starred in a play titled Survival, which addressed the treatment of Black prisoners during apartheid. T
he political nature of his work led to his arrest, where he spent three months in jail without trial.Despite these challenges, Michaels persevered, eventually transitioning to television, where he made his mark in shows like Zone 14, The Lab, Heartlines, and Rhythm City.In 2013, Michaels suffered a stroke while on a work trip to Cape Town.
He spent several months recovering at Groote Schuur Hospital, an experience that deeply impacted him.
Although he made a partial recovery, his mobility was affected, and he had to use a walking stick in the years that followed.
