Amrou Al-Kadhi was born on June 23, 1990, in London. They are a writer/director/performer, known for Little America (2020), The Watch (2020), Anemone (2018), Hollyoaks (1995), and Christopher Robin (2018) .

As a screenwriter, Amrou co-write the much lauded finale of Apple's Little America (2020), and is a writer on the BBC America adaptation of Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels, The Watch (2020).

Amrou is the writer/creator of "Targets," a horror in development with BBC Drama and Public Dreams Ltd. Amrou has other TV series in development, alongside ABC & FX Productions, NBC Universal and Playground / Endeavour Content. Amrou Al-Kadhi has two feature films in development - as writer/director, "Layla", with Film 4 & Fox Cub Films and "Oh, Molly" with BBC Films & Sarah Brocklehurst Productions. Amrou is also the author of "Life as a Unicorn: A Journey From Shame to Pride and Everything in Between," (Harper Collins), which is currently being adapted for screen.

Amrou is the writer/director of four short films that all share a focus on queer intersectional people of colour. The latest is Anemone (2018), created with BBC Films and Film London, a film about a non-binary teenager who expresses their non-binary identity through the magic of marine life. The second, [title=tt7140218], is a commission for Nowness, an exploration of how female-bodied drag queen Victoria Sin transforms social space through their drag - this gained official entry into the BFI London Film Festival. The third is an autobiographical short film, [title=tt6884552] - which explores the relationship between drag culture and Middle-Eastern femininity, and a genderqueer Arab boy's memory of their Muslim mother (screened at The London Short Film Festival, BFI Flare, LA Outfest, and distributed by Peccadillo Pictures). The fourth is an experimental short documentary commissioned by the BFI & BBC4, Clash (2017) , critiquing how period dramas erase the diverse reality of Britain. It is told through candid interviews with queer people of colour, alongside staged parodic period drama sequences. It was broadcast on BBC 4 on the 24th of September to 125k viewers, and is now available on BFI-player.

Amrou wrote and starred in the short film Nightstand (2015), executive produced by Stephen Fry and distributed by Peccadillo Pictures theatrically and on DVD.
