About the Job
Middle Eastern/North African: A charismatic and authoritative mosque leader who becomes Ahmed’s mentor and radicalizer. Outwardly warm and fatherly, but beneath the surface, Bilal is manipulative and ideological, justifying violence as defense of the faith. His speeches are impassioned and persuasive. ROLE REQUIRES TALENT THAT HAS OR CAN DO AN ARABIC OR NIGERIAN ACCENT. Being fluent in either language is a plus plus but not required as if you are a few phrases will be done in either language if so.
