Sofia Asir
- Actress
Sofia Asir, fka Danu, navigates her roles with an intensity that sticks with you. In Moon Knight, she transforms into Ammit, a presence that's cold and unshakable. She leaves a mark that won't fade, lingering in the space between reality and myth on Disney+.
Her career moves through light and shadow, crossing between the mainstream and the underground. In Terrence Malick's The Way of the Wind, Sofia steps into a world where time feels warped and stories carry a heavy weight. She's drawn to the edges, to indie films that speak in whispers. Fay's Palette, an Arab queer story, is one of those projects-raw and unfiltered, her role dives deep into struggle and identity.
In All Before You, Sofia becomes Diyala, a feminist activist in 1930s Jerusalem, caught between past and present. Under Annemarie Jacir's direction, she embodies a quiet force that refuses to fade, a symbol of resistance that resonates beyond the screen.
On stage, the stakes are even higher. In Two Palestinians Go Dogging, Sofia takes on Salwa, a role that grips you hard and doesn't let go. At the Royal Court Theatre, she commanded the stage with a presence that's both intense and unyielding, leaving the audience with something they can't quite shake.
