Mad Professah first noticed actor
Haaz Sleiman in Maurice Jamal's
The Ski Trip but first blogged about him during his stint as "
another improbably handsome muslim terrorist" on
24 last season.
During previews for the movie
Persepolis I saw an ad where his dazzling smile is features in the trailer for
The Visitor, an independent film starring
Richard Jenkins (the father in
Six Feet Under) as a college professor who travels to New York City and finds an immigrant couple (played by
Haaz Sleiman and
Hiam Abbass) living in his apartment. The film was written and directed by
Thomas McCarthy (who also wrote and drercted the indie hit
The Station Agent), and was presented at this year's Sundance Film festival. Thomas McCarthy plays the ethically challenged reporter Scott Templeton on the current (and final) season of
The Wire. Mad Professah applauds MCarthy for casting Sleiman in his second feature film and looks forward to seeing more of this talented (and improbably handsome) actor in the future! (hat/tip

Okay, M.P., please tell me that you can hook me up with with Haaz. I would marry this man in a heartbeat.
ReplyDeletepaws off, doggy!! I saw him first.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to see we share the same taste :)
Really looking forward to checking out Haaz in the Visitor when it hits theaters on April 11. He's a wonderful actor, and I also love Richard Jenkins from Six Feet Under. I found a few clips from The Visitor on the film's homepage here:
