In the fourth and final season of FX’s THE STRAIN, now available on Amazon Prime, Anvar portrays the monstrously self-serving Sanjay Desai, a human who collaborates with the vampires who had taken over the world. Originally from Saskatchewan, Canada, Anvar’s other credits include Syfy’s series OLYMPUS, the Oscar-winning ROOM, and STAR TREK CONTINUES (not to be confused with […]Read On »

Based on a series of best-selling novels by James S.A. Corey, Syfy’s new series THE EXPANSE, Tuesdays at 10 PM, is set two hundred years from now.
