About me

Born in the Comoros Islands, Elan Ben Ali arrived in France at a very young age.
In 2017, he was admitted jointly to the Conservatoire National de Paris and the Théâtre
National de Strasbourg; he chose the second option to continue his training.
In 2021 he starred in Clément Cogitore's thriller SONS OF RAMSES (Goutte d'or - Sons of Ramsès). In 2022, he was chosen to interpret Fabrice Morvan, one of the two frontmen of the top-charting pop and R&B duo Milli Vanilli, in Simon Verhoeven's international biopic GIRL YOU KNOW IT’S TRUE. The film is centered around the true story of Robert Pilatus and Fabrice Morvan, as they rose to fame in the late 1980s.
