Ebaa Abuammar

Ebaa Abuammar was born on May 20, 1990 in Lebanon. At the age of 12, Ebaa participated in a play and felt a feeling of freedom when acting. He received good feedback from his director for his performance. Due to his passion for daily watching of movies, he told his parents that he feels he can and wants to be a Hollywood movie star. However, that sounded impossible for his parents financially due to the far distance and the need for relocation. This made Ebaa rethink about it realistically and put it aside and think of pursuing playing Soccer instead. As he led his school team for 5 consecutive years, he was known for his leadership, teamwork, speed, and high ability to skillfully score in every match. It made him think for a while of moving to professionally play for Manchester United or Real Madrid. However, at the age of 17, Ebaa had a severe shoulder injury. The doctor told him it will take too long to heal, where he kept struggling with it for over 2 years. His dream of becoming a movie star was reignited with that incident, he maintained patience by reading about acting, studying music, playing beat instruments and the guitar, and watching movies. He was still watching movies on daily basis and reached around 20,000 hours of watching at that age. He says he used to do that to enjoy, learn, and practice. He was known for his sense of humor as he used to imitate known world-famous people in front of his classmates and imitate his teachers as well. Many encouraged him to act.
