Nazanin Boniadi’s character in Rings of Power is one of the most beloved in the show. The How I Met Your Mother actress played the mother to Theo while having a forbidden romance with the Elf warrior, Aron Dir. 

Boniadi’s announcement comes after the actress took to her Instagram to share that she is stepping away from acting for a while. In 2022, the Couterpart star shared, “I stepped away from acting in September 2022 to focus solely on the #WomanLifeFreedom uprising in Iran and to advocate for the people of my homeland who have been risking everything for freedom.”

The actress further added, “Despite my passion for acting, I knew it would take a very special project to convince me to once again split my time between my day job and my calling as an activist. A Mosquito in the Ear is that project. A beautiful adventure that we can’t wait to share with you.”
