Moussa Sullaiman

About me

TNT series “4 Blocks” - a significant moment in Moussa Sullaiman's career. In two seasons, he plays the gang leader Halim Karami and brings the character to life with his unmistakable presence. His style as an actor: less is more. With small gestures and subtle nuances, he manages to bring great emotions to the screen. Authenticity is his top priority. “My roles come to life, whether good or bad.”
Moussa Sullaiman carries many facets within him, such as love, fear and madness. He feels his heritage deep within him, shaped by his Spanish warrior ancestors who once settled in ancient Mesopotamia. Directed by Özgür Yildrim and Oliver Hirschbiegel, the series has been awarded the Grimme Prize and Jupiter Award, among others.
