The Oscar-winning Ali was eager to get involved in Ramy Youssef's Hulu comedy after first hearing about it. "I remember seeing an ad for the show on Instagram before it came out, and it immediately caught my attention and I messaged it to my wife, just on some like, 'Oh, interesting Muslim content!'" recalls Ali, who converted to Islam in 2000. "He gets into what is problematic about taking certain actions and how as people we’re constantly having to wrestle with our choices and our desires, and at the end of the day really want to have peace and fulfillment and do strive to do what’s right." Ramy Season 2 premieres May 29.
