Kim Engelbrecht

Kim Suzanne Engelbrecht (born 20 June 1980 in Cape Town, South Africa) is a South African actress best known for her roles as Lolly de Klerk in the soap opera Isidingo, Sgt. Noma Banks on the Syfy TV show, Dominion, and Marlize DeVoe on The CW show, The Flash.

She also presented a local youth television program called Take5 in the '90s. Much of Engelbrecht's work is localised in Johannesburg. Kim had a starring role in the acclaimed South African movie Bunny Chow, directed by John Barker.

She got her first big break at the age of 12 when she landed the lead role of Sara in an Italian production, Sarahsara, in which she played the role of a 12-year-old girl of Sudanese descent who swims from the Isle of Capri to Napoli in Italy.

Engelbrecht starred as Marlize DeVoe in the fourth season (2017/2018) of The Flash. In an interview with Kyle Zeeman of the Sunday Times, she said:

"It was amazing working with actors like Grant Gustin (who plays The Flash) and Neil Sandilands, who is also a South African. I am coming into a show that is the biggest on its network and is already on its fourth season. It has a huge fan base and that comes with a huge amount of pressure. I understand that it is a big show. That it is a big deal (for South Africa) and I just really want to do well"
