DUBAI: Lebanese American actress Razane Jammal, who made waves for her role in the Netflix series “The Sandman” this year, dropped the official poster for her upcoming Arabic show “Al Thaman” on Instagram over the weekend. For the latest updates, follow us on Instagram @arabnews.lifestyle “So excited to finally share the official poster for ‘Al Thaman’. Coming to you soon,” she wrote, along with the poster. An adaptation of the Turkish show “Bin Bir Gece,” the series also stars Syrian actor Bassel Khaiat. Aside from starring in “The Sandman,” Jammal has had a whirlwind year in 2022. Earlier in October, the actress was unveiled as the Middle East’s brand ambassador for French luxury label Dior. “I’m so unbelievably excited to finally announce that I will be joining Dior as a brand ambassador in the Middle East!” Jammal posted on Instagram at the time. “Ever since I joined the fashion community, I wanted to collaborate with people I can truly grow with, to join a family that I value as much as it values me. It’s been a long journey but I can confidently say I’ve found my home! The ME Dior team you have been so incredible,” she added. In Netflix’s “The Sandman,” which follows Morpheus, the King of Dreams, Jammal plays Lyta Hall, a woman who dreams of her dead husband each night, slowly realizing that he is not a figment of her imagination but is hiding out in the dream world to be with his wife. It’s a part that Jammal managed to play truthfully with subtlety — a subtlety that she credited her mother with teaching her to harness. “I’ve always been extra, and my mom was far more subtle than I am. I had to fine-tune myself to vibrate on her frequency, a frequency that was very sweet and very raw and vulnerable and nurturing. I took that from her. She helped me hone my empathy and acting is where an empath belongs — if they know how to protect themselves from that precious place that my mother taught me to reach,” said Jammal in an interview with Arab News. Jammal was raised in Beirut, Lebanon. “I grew up having a simple, community-based life in a place where you have 500 mothers and everyone feeds you and you feel safe — even if it’s not safe at all. At the same time, we went through so many traumas, from civil wars to assassinations to losing all our money in another financial crisis,” said Jammal.
