Actor

Born: March 26th 1947 in Isfahan, Iran

He studied architecture in Italy and was working in that field until an acclaimed Iranian New Wave director Abbas Kiarostami cast him for the leading role in Taste of Cherry. A non-professional actor, who started acting in his middle ages, Homayoun Ershadi had immediate success both in cinema and television. His expressionless, relaxed face and monotonous voice often give his characters a more intellectual look.
