Ryan Ali (born April 23, 1995) is a Canadian actor. He is known for portraying pilot Reese on the Paramount+/CBC medical drama series SkyMed[1], as well as young Egyptian newcomer Nabil in the Canadian Screen Award-nominated drama film Queen Tut[2].
Born in Syria, Ryan would immigrate to Montreal, Canada twice – first as a child in 1998, then as a young adult in 2013.[3]
Since then, Ryan has made a number of appearances in film and television productions including SyFy's drama miniseries Ascension (2014), the CTV police procedural 19-2 (2016), Kim Nguyen's thriller drama The Hummingbird Project (2018) and the Apple TV+ science fiction miniseries Foundation (2021-2023).
Acting career and education[edit]
After moving to Montreal in 2013, Ryan enrolled in an engineering program while simultaneously taking acting classes[4] and taking part in local theatre productions.[5]
His first credited on-screen appearance was on the SyFy miniseries Ascension in 2014. Ryan had to choose between a final exam in his engineering program and the role, and he ultimately chose to skip his exam to be able to play the part.[6] He would later leave engineering to pursue his acting career full time.[7]
His early breakthrough happened when he got cast alongside Salma Hayek, Alexander Skarsgård and Jesse Eisenberg in Kim Nguyen's dramatic thriller The Hummingbird Project[8], which premiered at the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival[9].
In July 2022, it was announced that Ryan would be starring in the feature film Queen Tut alongside Alexandra Billings.[10]
The following year, Ryan joined the cast of the medical drama series SkyMed for their second season as a series regular.[11]
