Tyrant tells the story of an unassuming American family
drawn into the inner workings of a turbulent Middle Eastern nation. Bassam
"Barry" Al-Fayeed (Adam Rayner), the youngest son of a war-torn
country's controversial dictator, returns to his homeland after a self-imposed
20-year exile in America for his nephew's wedding. Upon his return, Barry is
immediately thrown back into the familial and national politics of his youth.
He braces himself to confront the stark realities of his father and older
brother Jamal's (Ashraf Barhom) harsh rule, and finds himself at odds with
Jamal's wife, Leila (Moran Atias), who strongly believes in a firm, unforgiving
regime. Although his wife, Molly (Jennifer Finnigan), struggles to comprehend
her husband's apprehension, Barry is unable and unwilling to make his
all-American family understand his unease over returning home. Emma (Anne
Winters), their 17-year-old daughter, adores her father and shares his disdain
for the extravagances of her extended family. Meanwhile, their son, 16-year-old
Sammy (Noah Silver), revels in the lavish lifestyle their "royal"
status brings, but dangerously tests cultural divides with his poorly disguised
interest in handsome family bodyguard Abdul (Mehdi Dehbi). Barry's only warm
memory of his childhood, boyhood friend Fauzi (Fares Fares), wants nothing to
do with him. Fauzi is now a journalist, whose reports on the abuses of the
Al-Fayeed rule resulted in his arrest and torture. Barry must now confront the
life he once fled. With his father's health in decline, everyone – Jamal, their
mother Amira (Alice Krige), their father's top advisor Yussef (Salim Daw), and
even easygoing U.S. diplomat John Tucker (Justin Kirk) – expects him to assume
a more active role in both the family and the regime.
