Lloyd Vogel

"You don't care for humanity."

- Bill Isler talking to Vogel

Lloyd Vogel is the protagonist of the 2019 drama film A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. A renowned yet cynical journalist whose buried anger makes him ruthless towards his interviewees, Vogel is assigned to profile children's television host Fred Rogers for a magazine issue about heroes.

He initially seeks to destroy Rogers's reputation as he has done with his other interviewees, but instead learns about kindness and has a change of heart after Rogers compels him to confront his inner anger. Rogers's influence on Lloyd's life leads him to become a more compassionate and forgiving person.

Based loosely on journalist Tom Junod, Lloyd is portrayed by Matthew Rhys, who also voiced The Conductor in Infinity Train.
