Inanna Sarkis

Inanna Sarkis is a Canadiana actress of Bulgarian and Assyrian descent. Her family immigrated to Canada and struggled to make ends meet. Speaking only Bulgarian and Assyrian at home, Inanna didn't learn English until she started school. She first found her love for acting in her high school drama class where she performed The Beverly Hillbillies on stage. However, she pursued a Psychology and Criminal Justice degree at Ryerson University to fulfill her parent's expectations. In the meantime, she worked at bars and saved up enough money to move to California and pursue her acting dreams. In California, Inanna lived on top of a gym, while studying at various Acting studios and working as a bartender. Inanna soon became one of the digital space's preeminent content creators, using her channels to showcase comedy skits and short films in which she writes, directs and stars. She's found success on a variety of platforms, including the TV and film industry. She recently wrapped Nick Cassavette's MARKED MEN feature film and can be seen playing the leading role in the horror film SÉANCE, opposite Suki Waterhouse.
