Evin Ahmad

Evin Ahmad’s been tearing it up in the acting world—like, blink and suddenly her name’s everywhere. Born in Sweden, Kurdish roots, and trust me, that mix comes through in her work. She’s got this raw, magnetic vibe that just grabs you, whether she’s playing a street-smart hustler or navigating post-apocalyptic chaos. Awards? Oh, she’s snagged a couple of Guldbagge nominations—think Swedish Oscars—for roles in “Dröm Vidare” and “Ring Mamma!”. Not to mention, the Berlin Film Festival crowned her a Shooting Star in 2022. That’s no small feat. But if you really want to know how she blew up, it’s “Snabba Cash” on Netflix. She’s Leya—tough, ambitious, a total force. That show? Huge. Pulled in viewers from all over, not just Sweden. Before that, she was killing it in “The Rain,” this wild Danish series where the world’s falling apart, and she somehow makes surviving look cool. And don’t sleep on “Quicksand,” another Netflix gem, plus her film debut way back in 2007 with “Ett Öga Rött.” She’s got range, no doubt—jumping from indie flicks like “Girls of the Sun” to bigger productions like “Tsunami” and “The Restaurant.” Now, for anyone keeping tabs, 2023 was the year Evin seriously leveled up—landing the lead in Netflix UK’s “Who is Erin Carter?” That’s her international break, and honestly, she’s just getting started. Give it a year or two, and her name’s gonna be even bigger.
