Danny Glover

Danny Lebern Glover (born 22 July 1946 in San Francisco, California, USA) is an American actor, film director, and political activist. Danny's most famous role is probably Roger Murtaugh in the four Lethal Weapon films. He was also the star of Predator 2 (1990) and Saw (2004).

I met Danny at Collectormania 25 in Birmingham in June 2018. He was one of the main reasons for me to visit this con as to me he is a big star from the 80s and 90s. Then in June 2023, Danny signed my Lethal Weapon soundtrack album sleeve at Comic Con Yorkshire 2023. I did not attend that convention but I had sent placed a consignment order with Woody’s Memorabilia.
