Iranian actor transformed into Fidel Castro

Iranian actor Biouk Mirzaei is set to appear in a new movie, playing the legendary leader of the Cuban revolution, Fidel Castro.

In an online video featuring veteran Iranian actor Mirzaei, he has put on a new look resembling the Cuban revolution leader Castor who passed away in 2016.

He is due to play in ‘A Guest from the Caribbean’ directed by Behzad Farahani.

The flick narrates a love story with a plot summary that reads, “An experienced tailor has fallen in love with a lady whose husband has been executed. The tailor does not have the courage to express this love because of his attachment to his friend, and the lady closes her mouth and restrains her heart because of her loyalty to her deceased husband. This hidden love is the unfinished story of many Eastern men and women - the one that must finally be found in Eastern philosophy."

Mirzaei acted roles in TV series, including ‘The Cherry Garden’ , ‘Heroes Don’t Die’ ‘A Fistful of Eagle Feathers’ , ‘Cops and Robbers’ (2011), ‘Operation 125 (3)’, 'The Pahlavi Hat', The Top Secret and ‘Days of Youth’.

In the video attached, you can view how the Iranian actor's appearance is transformed drastically to look as closely as possible to Castro.
