Bella Hadid Acting Debut: Model Joining One of Hulu’s Successful Comedies
Bella Hadid is venturing out of the fashion world as a supermodel as she's reportedly starring in one of Hulu's most successful comedies; what show is this?
According to Deadline, fans can watch the 25-year-old model's first acting gig on the popular Hulu show "Ramy."
However, at the time of this writing, neither Hadid nor the production behind the show has announced the details of her character in the series, but the outlet confirmed that it would be a "recurring role."
"Ramy" has been successful over its past two seasons as it has already won a Peabody Award. The show revolves around first-generation Egyptian-American Ramy Hassan, played by Ramy Youssef, and his family navigating their spirituality in New Jersey.
In the third season, the famed Hulu show features the main character abandoning his spiritual journey to dedicate himself to him and his uncle's diamond business.
Aside from Hadid and Youssef, other stars on the show will be Laith Nakli, Hiam Abbass, May Calamawy, Amr Waked, Steve Way, and Mohammed Amer.
"Ramy" is being executive-produced by Adel Kamal, Christopher Storer, A24, Tyson Bidner, Jerrod Carmichael, Amir Sulaiman. Co-created by Ari Katcher, Kate Thulin, and Ryan Welch.

Bella Hadid Previously Spoke Out About Desire for Acting
The upcoming actress had previously spoken out about her desire to act on the big screen, but it seems like she didn't get the role she initially wanted as she's starring in a comedy.
In a 2017 interview with WWD, the then-20-year-old Hadid was asked whether she wanted to pursue something outside of modeling.
Hadid answered, "I'm going to stick with this for a while and kind of ride it out. And then eventually, I'll hopefully start dabbling in acting. But I want to be able to give my full attention to one or the other." (via Harper's Bazaar)
Speaking about her dream role, the supermodel said she wanted to play a superhero.
Currently, the model holds contracts with Dior Cosmetics and Michael Kors. Her impressive resume includes walking on some of the biggest shows in fashion like Givenchy, Fendi, Moschino, Missoni, Calvin Klein, Versace, and more.
Hadid is also the co-founder and partner of Kin Euphorics, a non-alcoholic wellness drink.
