Saba Mazloum
Saba Mazloum, an actor with a knack for popping up in some wild cinematic landscapes, has racked up a pretty cool list of credits lately. You might’ve caught her in "Xin xi ju zhi wang" from 2019—yeah, that one’s a bit of a curveball if you’re not into offbeat blends of drama and humor. She’s got this way of slipping into roles that feel grounded but still kinda electric, if that makes sense. Then there’s "少年的你" ("Better Days" for the folks outside China), an emotional rollercoaster that really hits hard. That film’s got layers—teen angst, gritty city vibes, and a whole lot of heartache. Saba brings a sort of rawness to the table, nothing polished or fake, just honest energy.
And don’t even get me started on "The Great Wall" from 2016. Giant monsters, Matt Damon rocking a ponytail, and Saba making her mark among a stacked cast—what a trip that movie is. It’s not every day you get to be part of a blockbuster that mashes up ancient Chinese legend with Hollywood spectacle, and she kinda nails her moments, even if the plot’s pure popcorn madness. Saba’s career, if you look at it, feels like she’s not afraid to jump between genres or languages—she’ll do what feels interesting, not just what’s expected. That’s probably why she keeps showing up in projects that actually stick with people. She’s got a vibe, a sort of screen presence that doesn’t scream for attention but keeps your eyes locked anyway.
