  • Trivia
    He is of Algerian descent.
  • Quotes
    There's really nothing to do there. Some kids go walking in the mountains but I just went to the cinema. So when I told my parents I wanted to be an actor, even though this wasn't normal for Arab kids or anyone in the town, they were sort of expecting it and were very supportive.
  • Trademarks
      Often plays ambivalent characters, hesitating between good and evil.
