Israeli actor Yehuda Levi is set to return to the screen on October 10th in Keshet 12's new drama series, "Ha'Bricha" (The Escape). In the series, Levi portrays a former senior security official who undertakes a dangerous rescue mission. The plot draws inspiration from recent revelations about cults.
In an interview with mako, Levi discussed what drew him to the role, particularly how becoming a father to his daughter, Naya, has altered his perspective on the series' themes. He noted that the series was filmed abroad before Naya was born, and he believes that if he had been filming after her birth, the story would have resonated even more deeply. "I understand that you would do anything to save your family, anything," Levi stated, reflecting on the rescue mission. "I felt inside that I would do anything, I would die for my daughter."
Levi described his character as a "lone wolf" with a difficult personal history, emphasizing that the rescue aspect of the story was particularly compelling. He also expressed fascination with the cult narrative at the heart of the series, stating, "I've always been interested in how you take over other people's consciousness, how you close and imprison them, take away their freedom of expression. That interests me greatly."
Despite his professional engagement with the role, Levi admitted that little from the filming process has stayed with him, attributing this to his daughter. "Naya erased everything for me, nothing else matters besides her," he said. He also expressed a desire for more children, stating, "Of course we want more children, there's no question about it."
