Moroccan Star Nadia Benzakour Joins History Channel’s ’Colosseum’ Series and Marvel Director’s Film

"Colosseum is an epic series about gladiators and The Creation of Earthquakes is a new genre comedy about Seneca and his relationship with Emperor Nero." The Moroccan actress promises to be impeccable in these two roles. She became known to the Moroccan public thanks to the Moroccan series Salon Shahrazade or thanks to the feature film by Meryem Ben Mbarek - Sofia, reports Atlasinfo.

Long before that, she had acted in The Tyrant directed by David Yates, the director of Harry Potter. She also appeared in Killing Jesus opposite John Rhyes Davis (Lord of the Rings) and Rufus Sewell (The Illusionist, Dark City...).

In addition to the Hollywood scene, Nadia Benzakour is very well known to French directors. She had a role in the Bureau des Légendes and Hommes de l’ombre.

"When I found myself facing Carole Bouquet, which was a big surprise, I simply kept quiet. I didn’t want to make any mistakes. Wrong, Carole Bouquet is actually such a friendly actress, so I was encouraged to address her as simply as possible, and it was a real moment of sharing," Nadia recounts.

Even though the Franco-Moroccan actress spent all her youth in Paris and discovered cinema there, it was in New York that her career took off. She will spend three beautiful years there that will give her the strength to work to be more efficient and in high demand.
