Mo Ismail is an Egyptian-born American actor and producer with over 15 years of experience in the entertainment industry. Renowned for his prodigious passion for film, music, health, and fitness, Mo has collaborated with some of the world's biggest stars over the last decade, building a reputation for his grounded approach and genuine respect for fellow creatives.

Mo prides himself on his ability to demonstrate an array of natural talents. With a diverse blend of experience in media, movies, and other various sectors of the entertainment industry, he has earned a reputation amongst colleagues, viewers, and listeners as someone who introduces a new and real dynamic to his performances and remains in-tune with what the public needs and wants.

Inspired at a very young age by cinematic legends like Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, Denzel Washington, Sylvester Stallone, and Mel Gibson, Mo formally began his acting journey in 2010. Since then, he has appeared in numerous commercials for brands such as Rolls-Royce, BMW, GMC, and Etisalat, showcasing a versatile screen presence that resonates with a global audience.

An avid fan of action, drama & historical genres, Mo pursues challenging roles that demand authenticity. His notable film credits include:

  • The Diversion (Lead role)
  • Fast & Furious 7 (Cast)
Khuda Haafiz: Chapter 2 - Agni Pariksha (Bollywood/Villain) - where he became the first Egyptian-born American actor to feature in a Bollywood film
  • Daveed: The Story of a Fighter (Malayalam Cinema) - marking him as the first Egyptian-born American actor to star in South Indian cinema, making him the only Egyptian actor to bridge both North (Bollywood) and South Indian film industries
  • Kemet (Writer, Producer, Actor) - an upcoming project spotlighting Egypt's ancient past circa 12,000 BC, making it the first Egyptian film dedicated to exploring that era in depth


Beyond live-action film, Mo expanded his craft to voice acting in Disney's Kizazi Moto: Generation Fire, becoming the first Egyptian to voice an original Disney character in the series. His humble, collaborative demeanor and respect for everyone involved in the creative process underscore his dedication to producing work that resonates on multiple levels.

In 2022, Mo founded Desert Eagle Films with the goal of "creating cinematic experiences that transcend time and borders". Having spent 15 years honing his production skills, he envisioned a company that not only produces high-caliber content but also fosters cross-cultural collaborations. Through Desert Eagle Films-and his personal "Mo Muscles" brand rooted in health and fitness-Mo Ismail continues to inspire audiences worldwide, bringing intense passion, grounded humility, and genuine respect to every project he undertakes.
