Born Hoji Ya Henda Braga Fortuna on 4 September 1974 in Luanda, Hoji Fortuna is an Angolan actor named after Hoji-ya-Henda, a celebrated figure of Angola's independence struggle.
He relocated to Portugal in his early twenties, where he studied law at the Catholic University of Portugal in Porto while supporting himself through modeling and DJ work before eventually turning to acting. From 2001 onward he built a career in theatre, television and film, becoming a familiar face in Portugal through roles in numerous TV series, and in 2008 he moved to New York with then-partner, travel writer Anja Mutic.
