Acclaimed filmmaker Zack Snyder is all praise for Bollywood actor Huma Qureshi, recalling their collaboration on the 2021 release Army of the Dead. Snyder shared a picture on Instagram and called Huma 'one of the most amazing actors' he has worked with in the film.
Zack recalled working with Huma in the 2021 Netflix zombie heist film and wrote, '@iamhumaq — one of the most amazing actors I’ve had the pleasure of working with on Army of the Dead. Talent, presence, and pure brilliance on screen.'
In response, Huma wrote, 'You the best .. boss man.' Farah Khan, a close friend of Huma in the film industry, also commented, 'Arre wahhh.'
Zack had previously talked about working with Huma in an interview with Hindustan Times in 2021, saying that Huma's character was always intended to be Indian. 'She was written as an Indian character, and Huma is a really amazing actress, no two ways about it,' he said.
