Goyer and Allan Heinberg. It follows the people and places affected by Morpheus (Sturridge), the Dream King, as he mends the cosmic — and human — mistakes he’s made during his vast existence. Jammal will take on the role of Lyta Hall, the best friend and travel companion of Rose Walker, who is one of the main protagonists of the comic book series. The star gained prominence for her role as Lana Jarrar in Olivier Assayas’ award-winning mini-series “Carlos.” She would go on to feature in rapper Kanye West’s short film “Cruel Summer” in 2012. The 33-year-old is also the star of Netflix series “Paranormal” based on the late Ahmed Khaled Tawfik’s best-selling book of the same name.
