Parisa Fakhri plays Marwa in ‘What We Do in the Shadows’ Season 4
In What We Do in the Shadows Season 4, Nandor finds a Djinn in a lamp, who grants him 52 wishes. Nandor wishes to bring back all 37 of his dead wives, hoping to find the one he truly loved. He runs the women (and men) through a Bachelor-like string of tests before settling on Marwa, telling the cameramen that they are engaged to be wed.
Nandor has been burning through his wishes quickly to build a perfect relationship. He changes Marwa’s hair three times and asks for the world’s biggest penis, which backfires. When Marwa wishes to join him at the night market, he whispers a wish to the Djinn so that she will want to stay home. It’s clear that Nandor’s relationship will be in trouble when he runs out of wishes, which doesn’t bode well for Marwa.
Fakhri has voice acted in a variety of TV shows and video games

‘What We Do in the Shadows’ Season 4 will feature a vampire wedding
Nandor intends to marry Marwa in What We Do in the Shadows Season 4. During the WWDITS panel at the 2022 San Diego Comic-Con, several details about the upcoming season were revealed. “There WILL be a full vampire wedding this season,” the show’s official Twitter stated.
While the most obvious scenario is that the wedding will be Nandor and Marwa’s, ScreenRant suggested another interesting possibility. Guillermo has been seen secretly video chatting with a romantic partner in season 4. Perhaps he is romantically involved with a vampire, and it will be their wedding that takes place in season 4.
New episodes of What We Do in the Shadows air Tuesdays at 10 p.m. EST on FX.
