Biography

Ghassan Matar was a Palestinian actor. He was born in Jaffa and got interested in performing arts at a very early age. His debut as an actor was in the Egyptian television series “Da'irat Aldaw'” (The Circle of Light), and due to his unique looks and low-register voice, he was then often cast as a villain in numerous films, television series, and theatrical plays. He also served as president of the Arab Artists Union and wrote several screenplays, including the 1996 Palestinian film “Al Tha'er” (The Rebel).
