Jamil Khan(III)
- Actor
- Writer
- Director
Jamil Khan started his career in the film industry in 2016 as a working
actor. After years of dreaming, Jamil found his path into the industry
when major film companies moved to Atlanta, next door to his
hometown in Alabama. Years later in 2019, he fell in love with writing
after reading so many different scripts for his auditions. His three major
influences are Dave Chappelle, Stephen King, and Quentin Tarantino. His
style of flipping stereotypes comes from his juxtaposition upbringing of
being half Pakistani and being raised in the south,
surrounded by the African American and rural white American
communities. He observed how communities of different cultures can
coincide with preexisting prejudices and he is able to turn that dynamic
relationship of many diverse characters into comedy, horror, and drama.
