Yazdan Qafouri is an Iranian-born actor who provides the English dub voice of Hama, one of the sons of Helm Hammerhand, in the 2024 anime prequel film The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim. His performance contributes to the film’s exploration of Helm’s family and the political turmoil surrounding Rohan generations before the events of Peter Jackson’s original trilogy, giving voice to one of the story’s younger, more impulsive royal figures.
Qafouri’s other credits include the psychological thriller I Came By and the fantasy adventure The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, reflecting a career spanning both dramatic and genre film work. His involvement in The War of the Rohirrim marked a significant credit within the wider Lord of the Rings franchise, joining a voice cast that included several actors connected to Peter Jackson’s original trilogy alongside newer talent bringing Rohan’s earlier history to life for the first time in animated form.
Qafouri’s contribution to expanding Middle-earth’s history beyond the original trilogy and The Hobbit has made him a notable figure among Lord of the Rings fans and collectors interested in the franchise’s growing animated and voice-driven storytelling.
