Marshall Manesh
Popular with both Persian and U.S. audiences, Iran native Marshall Manesh has become an American success story. After moving to the States in the late 1970s, Manesh's break came in 1994 when he co-starred with Arnold Schwarzenegger in "True Lies." From there, he appeared in feature films "Barb Wire," "The Big Lebowski," and "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End ," and in TV series such as "The X-Files." In 1999, the actor was cast as Mr. Zamir, a series regular on "Will & Grace," and in 2005 he landed a role on the sitcom "How I Met Your Mother."
