Allan Kutos Katongole joins the Newman’s Family!

As the unforgettable Oscar Gume, Allan Kutos Katongole brought a blend of strength and vulnerability to the screen that kept Uganda, and indeed the entire world, watching in the popular series, Sanyu.

From the gripping drama of Second Chance to the historical weight of 27 Guns, Allan is no stranger to commanding the screen. Today, the award-winning actor brings that signature gravitas to a different stage.

We are proud to officially announce that Allan Kutos Katongole is the new Brand Ambassador for Newman’s!

This partnership is a natural fit for a man of his caliber. With a deep admiration for the legendary Denzel Washington, Allan has always looked to the greats to define his own standards of excellence.

It is clear that his eye is trained to recognize greatness in all its forms, whether it is a powerhouse performance on camera or the premium quality of the Newman’s snacks. Just as he chooses his roles with precision, he has chosen Newman’s as his snack of choice.

Watching Allan navigate the Newman’s boardroom to sign this partnership felt like a scene straight out of a blockbuster. He brings a “main character energy” that is impossible to ignore. But in this production, the plot twist is delicious: the “bag” he’s securing is full of Newman’s snacks.

Whether he’s fueling up between takes on a new set or recharging after an intense gym session, he is here to show us that Newman’s is his ultimate source of energy.

It’s time to Taste the Magic, Allan Kutos style!

Welcome on board, Mr. Ambassador!
