Biography

Peyman Maadi, a talented individual, was brought into this world in 1972 within the vibrant city of New York, to a loving Iranian couple. His father, a dedicated lawyer, played a significant role in shaping Peyman's early life. As fate would have it, Peyman's family decided to relocate back to their homeland, Iran, when he was just five years old. This pivotal move would have a lasting impact on his upbringing and future endeavors.

Peyman's academic pursuits led him to earn a degree in Metallurgical Engineering from the esteemed Karaj Azad University. However, his true passion lay in the world of filmmaking. He began his screenwriting career in the late 2000s, eventually becoming the writer of several renowned Iranian films.

As Peyman's writing career flourished, he made the transition to acting, making his debut in Asghar Farhadi's critically acclaimed film About Elly (2009). Two years later, Peyman's outstanding performance as Nader in Farhadi's A Separation (2011) earned him the prestigious Silver Bear award for Best Actor in Leading Role at the Berlin International Film Festival.
