Awarded the Los Angeles Comedy Award and featured at the Cannes Film Festival, Love Addict is the story of Owen Maxwell (Haddaway), a successful businessman and chronic womanizer whose ways are changed after a hypnotherapy session GONE hilariously wrong. Haddaway is also in the 2016 FOX Network series, "The Seraph", as well as two other movies slotted for next year.

Born in Lebanon, Haddaway pursued his interest in acting onstage during college, often cast in leading roles. He has starred in numerous plays across France, in playhouses including the Palais des Congrs and Bataclan. While a student at the Actor's Studio and the prestigious Cours Florent, his talent was recognized and he was recruited for roles in short movies, eventually making his way to Los Angeles. There he trained with Bobby Chance and Time Weske Swordplay.

"Every movie star that I've known or have studied possesses a special trait that I wanted to emulate or admire. For example, I like how Marlon Brando was a rebel, and how tough and tempered Al Pacino and Robert De Niro are, and how crazy Jack Nicholson can be. These are traits that I would pick to have in my ideal figure." Haddaway

Recently, Haddaway was offered a lead role in the TV-mini series "ChiRaq", set in Chicago and filming July 2015. Haddaway will be playing a dark, violent, deep and dramatic recurring role. He is also in talks for a role with the producer from Endangered Species, for an adventure romance set in South Africa and which will be filmed in 2016. Other future projects he will appear in are Angels in the Sky, about foreign pilots who fought during Israel's War for Independence, with talks in progress for the potential of having Ben Affleck as director.

Haddaway is also in discussions to appear in the film Toploader, based on A TRUE STORY about the VHS/Betamax war for videocassettes in the 1970s and a reflection on how important decisions of innovation and technology can touch us all. Haddaway has also been asked to audition for the film Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist, the brain-child of Joey Ansah. Assassin's Fist is being brought to the screen by the core team behind the hugely successful fan movie, Street Fighter: Legacy. Another sequel he will star in is Love Addict II, which begins filming Spring 2016.

"The most fun part of acting is when I am in production, not when I am getting ready for it or when I am done, but when I am actually acting. It's not even when I see the final work, but the actual acting itself, waking up each MORNING and acting. This is when acting becomes being." Haddaway

Haddaway has also been introduced to the Burrell Communications Group to play in two commercials for "A Brands" in America.

Haddaway looks forward to further upcoming roles, including the main role as a Nazi General in the film, The Star & the Violin, about a boy who had to play the violin for the SS General in order to save his own life, a powerful drama offering an amazing role for Haddaway. Last, but not the least, Haddaway will be starring in a film based on A TRUE STORY of Kashmir by Indian director & producer Shreesh Zutshi.
