لیور راز

Lior Raz is an acclaimed Israeli actor, screenwriter, producer, and co-creator who achieved international stardom as the driving force behind the critically acclaimed Netflix espionage thriller series Fauda. Born in Ma'ale Adumim, Israel, to parents who immigrated from Iraq and Algeria, Raz set to pursue acting at the Yoram Loewenstein Performing Arts Studio. Before his global breakout, he built a solid foundation in Israeli television and film, appearing in series like Naor's Friends and Prime Minister's Children, as well as feature films such as The Kindergarten Teacher and Footnote. Raz's career reached international heights when he co-created Fauda alongside journalist Avi Issacharoff, drawing heavily on their shared military and journalistic experiences. Premiering in 2015, the gritty, dual-perspective series became a massive global hit after being picked up by Netflix, earning widespread acclaim and numerous awards (including multiple Israeli Academy Awards). Building on Fauda’s success, Raz and Issacharoff signed an overall deal with Netflix, leading to the creation of the high-stakes international thriller series Hit & Run (2021). In recent years, Raz has expanded his international footprint with prominent Hollywood film and television roles—including appearances in Netflix's action film 6 Underground alongside Ryan Reynolds, Ben Affleck's action-thriller Triple Frontier, the Apple TV+ drama The Crowded Room, and critically praised Israeli dramatic projects like A Body That Works—firmly establishing himself as a major creative and acting force in global television.
