Ibrahim Eloouhabi: The "I Killed a Kid" kid tells us his pronouns, models some Liberace outfits. Is that enough? With n*de Costner and Moroccan dudes

I felt like I should profile one of the actors from In the Hand of Dante, to get something of value from it (other than picking up my bilingual edition of The Inferno again).  So  I checked the actors who played teenage Dante, the murdered Bartender, the guy who killed his father, the boy with the big knife, and Mephistopheles, but none of them were suitable.  How about the boy who tells his uncle, "I just killed a kid"?  It's not clear in the movie (nothing is), but he grows up to be focus character Nick (Oscar Isaacs, below).

Ibrahim Elouahabi gives his pronouns (he/his), and speaks Arabic.  That's enough for a profile. 

Not just Arabic.  He also speaks Turkish and Darija (Moroccan Arabic) and he is studying French.

Darija is not intelligible with Modern Standard Arabic: it has reduced the number of vowels, adapted its grammar to Tamazight (Berber), and borrowed much of its vocabulary from French: forshita (fork), tabla (table), boulis (police).

Ibrahim's family is from Morocco, but he was born "on the vibrant streets of Brooklyn," according to his hyperbolic IMDB bio.  He began his career in 2019, as a fashion model for Zara, Nike, and Macy's.  Soon he was performing in commercials for Brawny paper towels, Magic Spoon (upscale cereal), and Marriot Vacation Club.

His on-screen performances begin with two shorts, The Prescription (2020), no description available, and Roque (2022), about Salvadorean poet Roque Dalton.  Ibrahim plays Roque as a boy, and Jaden McKnew (left) as an adult.

Next came a small role in Audrey's Children (2024), a biopic of Dr. Audrey Evans, who developed "revolutionary treatments" for sick children.

In Ebenezer the Traveler (2024), the ghosts of Scrooge, his sister, Jacob Marley, and a grown-up Tiny Tim are assigned to help an aspiring singer in modern-day Oklahoma.  I think Ibrahim plays her son.

More after the break

In Lake George (2025), not to be confused with Lake George (2024), two guys named Psyche and Rame (Rio Thake, left), must come up with $100,000, or "a family member" will be executed in prison. Ibrahim plays the young Psyche.

House of David (2025) is a Christian tv series about the life of the Biblical David (omitting his romance with Jonathan, of course).  Ibrahim plays the young Achish, who will grow up to become the evil king of the Philistines (played by Alexander Uloom, on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends).

Kevin Costner Presents the First Christmas (2025) is a Christian movie (obviously) with the Dances with Wolves guy (n*de on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends) narrating.  Ibrahim plays Obed, one of the shepherds who "watched their flocks by night, all seated on the ground,"  when angels appear to announce the birth of Christ.

Left: Saif Al-Warith plays the Angel Gabriel, but I think this is a different Saif.  

Three of Ibrahim's eight acting credits are Christian or Christmas-themed.  Is that weird for a Muslim actor?

 Ibrahim hasn't played any gay or gay-adjacent characters to date, and he has no social media presence, so all we have are his pronouns and some femme poses to suggest that the little dude might be a friend of Liberace.  Is that enough?  Other young teens have given us many more hints.
