Book Amr Waked
Amr Waked is an Egyptian actor who built a reputation at home before becoming a familiar face in international film and television. His first major part came in the 2002 Egyptian film Ashab wallah business, where his performance as a Palestinian character was so convincing that many viewers assumed he was Palestinian himself. He landed his first lead in Deil el Samaka (2003). Hollywood took notice when he acted opposite George Clooney in Syriana (2005), a role that earned him a special award at the Cairo International Film Festival in 2006. He then played Hussein Kamel in the BBC and HBO drama House of Saddam in 2008. His English-language credits continued with the Yemeni sheikh Muhammad in Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, police captain Pierre Del Rio in Luc Besson's Lucy (2014), a role in the series Marco Polo, and Farouk Hassan in the comedy Ramy. In 2025 he appeared in Eagles of the Republic. Waked brings a cross-cultural perspective shaped by a career moving between Arabic cinema and global productions, and he has been based in Spain since 2017.
