Iko Uwais - Biography
Iko Uwais (born Uwais Qorny; February 12, 1983) is an Indonesian actor, stuntman, fight choreographer, and martial artist. He is best known for starring in the action films Merantau (2009), The Raid (2011), The Raid 2 (2014), Headshot (2016) and Mile 22 (2018).
In 2007, Uwais was discovered by director Gareth Evans, who was filming a documentary about silat in Uwais's training hall. Uwais's natural charisma and great camera presence encouraged Evans to cast him as the leading role for his first martial art movie, Merantau. After signing a five-year contract with Gareth Evans and his production company, Uwais resigned from his daytime job as an operational driver at Esia, an Indonesian telecom company.
In 2016, he appeared in the martial arts film Headshot, which received generally positive reviews. In 2017, he filmed the international martial arts film Triple Threat, together with Tony Jaa, Tiger Chen, and Scott Adkins—the film is slated for a 2018 release. In 2018, Uwais starred in the movies Mile 22 and The Night Comes For Us. In the same year, it was announced that Uwais was cast in the lead role of Kai Jin on the Netflix series, Wu Assassins.
On June 25, 2012, Uwais married singer Audy Item at the Hotel Gran Mahakam in Jakarta. The couple has two daughters, Atreya Syahla Putri Uwais and Aneska Layla Putri Uwais. Uwais is a Muslim.
