Podcast appearances and mentions of shila ommi

Iranian/American actress & filmmaker Shila Ommi (Disney & Pixar ELEM ENTAL, Apple TV+  “Tehran,” “Little America,” “Charlie Wilson's War”), discussing her work at Pas in Netflix hot new binge-worthy series KAOS (starring Jeff Goldbloom and Janet McTeer). In the intriguing world of KAOS, it's the pantheon of gods versus humans with Zeus at the top of the mythological food chain as the cruel and stylish ruler of the gods, a position he has enjoyed for some time. Then one day he discovers the unthinkable: a wrinkle on his forehead. Paranoia builds, leading the supreme deity down a dangerous and unstable path. All-powerful Zeus is convinced his fall is nigh and sees omens of doom everywhere.  Recently audiences saw Shila as Cinder Lumen Firetown's resident matchmaker in Disney & Pixar ELEM ENTAL, utilizing her natural gift that allows her to smell true love in a Fire person's smoke, whether they know it or not. She boasts numerous matches throughout her tenure—she's proud of her track record—but this brusque, no-nonsense and traditional mom has yet to find a match for her daughter.  Elsewhere audiences can see Shila Ommi on the Apple TV+ espionage thriller, “Tehran.” Shila Ommi is one of the returning co-stars of Apple TV+,  espionage thriller, “Tehran,” now streaming season two now on Apple TV+.  Ommi portrays the character of Nahid Kamali, the wife of Shaun Toub's character Faraz Kamali (a skilled investigator with the Revolutionary Guards), and she also shared the screen with the iconic Glenn Close, and in season two. The heart-pounding “Tehran,” which has earned the comparison in the media already of “24” meets “The Americans,” is must-watch TV at its finest. Shila Ommi is an American/ actress, born in Tehran, and has lived in Los Angeles since the onslaught of the 1979 Iranian Revolution.  Her mother was a poet and her father was a philanthropist, real estate mogul, and the founder and CEO of Iran's largest construction company, Vima Co.  At an early age, Ommi witnessed the wrath of the Islamic regime. Ommi's father was also on their hit list, but her family had the chance to flee the country, leaving behind their wealth and all their belongings to begin a new life in the United States. Today, Shila Ommi is a prominent actress in the Iranian communities in diaspora.  For over a decade, she toured the globe as the lead actress and co-artistic director of Workshop 79, a theatre company spearheaded by acclaimed Iranian playwright/director/actor Houshang Touzie (“A Simple Wedding,” “Argo”). The founder of the LA-based theater group, Turquoise Heart Productions,  Ommi uses theater art as a form of healing and activism, writes, directs, and acts in theatre pieces that share the Iranian experience with American audiences, and the exile experience with Iranians abroad. She is recently directed a play commissioned by the Los Angeles Department of Mental Health. Ommi portrays the character Nahid, in the acclaimed espionage thriller, “Tehran,” with seasons 1 & 2 streaming now on Apple TV+ . She portrayed the character of Yasmin in the Apple TV+ anthology series “Little America” co-starring with Shaun Toub (who is also her screen husband in “Tehran”).  Ommi is also a voice-over artist and performs regularly in animated films and web series.  She is the voice of all the characters, male and female in a cartoon series called “NOPM: Special Forces” which was commissioned by the Boromand Foundation, a human rights organization focused on Iran's human rights violations. She is narrating a video about deforestation, and a film about Iran… both coming out by the end of this year.   Today's sponsor: Www.kaldental.com 310-360-8250 https://www.instagram.com/dds.kaldental    Stay connected on my newsletter and socials: https://www.chonacas.com/links/    

Today's set of interviews features Eric Holmes interviewing Seven Cemeteries director John Gulager and Kaos actress Shila Ommi. The reason why Eric and I could not review Seven Cemeteries was this was recorded last week and the embargo had not lifted. Both Eric and I recommend the feature btw!

A fun-filled show this week on BEHIND THE LENS as we wrap up the month of June and the first half of 2023 as we take a look at ELEMENTAL with voice actor SHILA OMMI and SHEROES with writer/director JORDAN GERTNER! First up, take a listen to my exclusive interview with writer/director JORDAN GERTNER who makes his feature directorial debut with the kick-ass action film SHEROES. Known best for his producing work, notably the James Franco-Vanessa Hudgens-Selena Gomez wild ride of "Spring Breakers", Jordan now steps into the director's chair with SHEROES and delivers a beyond entertaining adventure. Lensed in Thailand, SHEROES is the story of four BFFs intent on partying and adventuring a la "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas", only now it's Thailand. Things go awry from the start when one of the girls is kidnapped by a local drug lord. Rather than call the police for help, the remaining three BFFs decide to save their friend themselves. AAnd keep listening because we've got a real treat for you as the oh-so-talented actor SHILA OMMI is on hand discussing her latest work voicing Mrs. Cinder Lumen in the new Pixar animated delight – ELEMENTAL, the tale of Ember Lumen, tough and "fiery" gal who develops a friendship with the "go with the flow" Wade and how the idea of opposites attract just may have some truth to it. And while Ember's dad is a shopkeeper at the family business, her mother Cinder prides herself on her skills as a "matchmaker" and her belief in the power of love. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Elemental received a chilly reception at the box office in its opening weekend, and sparks are certainly flying between lovers and haters of Pixar's 27th feature film. Some call it one of Pixar's hottest while others find it to be watered down. So this week we review this force of nature film and discuss what works and doesn't, plus we play the Rotten Tomatoes Game to see how the critical consensus is shaping up. Elemental was directed by Peter Sohn, a longtime Pixar mainstay who previously directed The Good Dinosaur. Sohn also co-wrote the film with John Hoberg, Kat Likkel, and Brenda Hsueh, with Pete Docter serving as executive producer. The voice cast includes Leah Lewis, Mamoudou Athie, Ronnie del Carmen, Shila Ommi, Wendi McLendon-Covey, and Catherine O'Hara. Elemental premiered at the 76th Cannes Film Festival and was released nationwide through Disney on June 16. The runtime is a breezy 109 minutes. Our intro music this week is “Gato” by TyLuv. & Strehlow. Links: Email your feedback for the show to cinemaholicspodcast [at] gmail.com Join our Discord! We have a Cinemaholics channel here.

Her journey and work ethic is absolutely incredible and beyond giving us an inside look on what it is like to work for Disney/Pixar, she also leaves us with amazing advice for anyone who aspires to be a working actor/actress in the entertainment industry.
