From actor to storyteller

The actor and writer behind Fauda and Hit & Run.

Writing the role he wanted to play

Israeli actor and screenwriter Lior Raz is known for creating stories as well as performing in them. Before his international breakthrough, he worked in Israeli television and film, including The Kindergarten Teacher (2014).

Together with journalist Avi Issacharoff, Raz created Fauda, the television thriller first broadcast in 2015. He also plays Doron Kabilio. The series draws on its creators’ experiences while presenting a fictional drama about the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.

Raz has described creating Fauda as a way to make the kind of role he wanted to play. He later co-created and starred in Hit & Run (2021), a thriller that follows a man searching for answers after his wife is killed.

His screen work also includes Operation Finale and Tuner, in which he plays Uri. Raz and Issacharoff founded Faraway Road Productions together. The titles listed below are limited to films currently in the FLM.RED database.
