Tahar Rahim
Tahar Rahim (born 4 July 1981) is a French actor, most known for his performance in A Prophet (2009), for which he won the César Award for Best Actor and César Award for Best Male Revelation, alongside a BAFTA Rising Star Award nomination.
In Hollywood, Rahim first starred as FBI agent Ali Soufan in the miniseries The Looming Tower (2018). For his performance as Mohamedou Ould Slahi in The Mauritanian (2021) he received nominations for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor and the BAFTA Award for Best Actor. For his portrayal of French serial killer Charles Sobhraj in the miniseries The Serpent (2021), Rahim received his second Golden Globe nomination.
Rahim has since portrayed Paul Barras in the period film Napoleon (2023), Ezekiel Sims in the Sony Spider-Man Universe film Madame Web (2024). For his performance as Charles Aznavour in the musical biographical drama Monsieur Aznavour (2024), he received his third César nomination.
Rahim was born in Belfort, France, to a family from Oran, Algeria.
After earning a Baccalauréat at the Lycée Condorcet of Belfort, Rahim enrolled first in sports and then computer science programmes. After two subsequent years of boredom studying the subjects in Strasbourg and Marseille, Rahim decided to pursue his passion and began to study film at the Paul Valéry University of Montpellier. His life as a film student was chronicled in a docufiction by fellow Belfortain Cyril Mennegun titled "Tahar, student", aired on French TV channel France 5 in 2006.
Following this, Rahim moved to Paris in 2005 and studied drama at the Laboratoire de l'Acteur under Hélène Zidi-Chéruy while working in a factory during the week, and in a nightclub at weekends, to make ends meet.
In mid-2006, after signing with an agent, Rahim won a part in the hit Canal+ television series La Commune written by Abdel Raouf Dafri.
After a two-line appearance in the 2007 horror movie Inside starring Béatrice Dalle, he went through a gruelling three months of auditioning. After eight callbacks, he landed his breakthrough role.
