Tima Shomali

Later, Shomali transformed Femaleshow into a fictional romantic comedy series about a couple's life through dating, engagement, marriage and pregnancy from a woman's point of you. The show attracted more than 25 million viewers, and was rated as one of the top five web series to watch in the Arab region. Shomali wanted to make Femaleshow relatable, and wanted to use it to tackle issues in Jordanian society, without speaking about the problems directly. She made her content comedic and relatable so she could place emphasis on the reality that women and Arabs in general are a part of, and change the stereotypes that exists about Arabs in the world at large. Shomali became one of the most familiar faces in the industry, and was titled one of the "100 Under 40: The World’s Most Influential Young Arabs". Shomali gained thousands of followers on her social media pages (Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter) and all her social media accounts were verified. She uses her social media influence to promote causes that she believes in, such as humans right to education, women empowerment, and youth empowerment.

On April 13, 2019, Shomali announced to her followers on Facebook that she is working on creating an original Arabic Netflix series, in collaboration with her Jordanian production company Filmizion Productions, titled AlRawabi School for Girls. As the show runner, writer, and director of the second original Arabic Netflix series ever, Shomali wanted to tell a story about women in the region. Working alongside the writer Shirin Kamal, the two writers created a full female cast drama series, that takes place in an all girls school and explores the ideas of revenge and bullying. The story is about a girl who gets bullied by other girls in her school, and decides to take matters into her hands in order to get revenge. When asked about the show, Director of International Originals at Netflix Simran Sethi said:

In 2015, Shomali went behind the camera. She started by producing a TV series titled Zain alongside Saba Mubarak. After that she worked alongside Zainab Salbi on her show Nida'a as the supervising producer. She was invited as a guest on one of the episodes of Nida'a to discuss the nature of relationships and marriage in the Arab world openly. Shomali went back in front of the camera when she hosted an entertainment chat show in the UAE called Dardachat that was aired on Al-Emarat Channel. As her career moved forward in 2017, Shomali was featured in Netflix's campaign “She Rules", by creating a short video that challenges the stereotypes that Arab women and women around the globe are constantly being associated with. In 2018, Shomali hosted Sadeem, a reality show that brings in young contestants together to compete for the title of the next digital superstar.

After graduating from RSICA, Shomali made her debut as a comedy writer and lead actress in the local online comedy show Bath Bayakha. The show gained 11 million viewers on YouTube and became a huge success in the region. Shomali's success in Bath Bayakha led her to start her own production company in 2012 called Filmizion Productions. She created her own online show, which she titled Femaleshow. It started off as a show that conducted social experiments in the streets of Amman, which then Shomali would comment on through comedic monologues and skits that she wrote herself. Without attempting to change the stereotype that exists in the Arab world that claims women are not funny, Shomali became one of the most well known comedian actors in Jordan.

Shomali graduated from the University of Jordan with a BA in Business Administration and Finance, since none of the universities in Jordan at the time were offering film courses. However, after she earned her BA degree, she started participating in workshops and seminars offered by the Jordanian Royal Film Commission. After making her first short film, she applied to an MFA program at Red Sea Institute of Cinematic Arts (RSICA) that started operating in Aqaba in 2008. She graduated with an MFA in screenwriting and producing.

Tima Shomali (Arabic: تيما الشوملي ‎, born March 7, 1985) is a Jordanian producer, director, writer, and comedy actress. Zainab Salbi called her "Tina Fey of the Arab world" during an interview with the young actress, in New York at the Woman in the World Summit. After earning an MFA degree in producing and screenwriting at RSICA, Shomali joined the YouTube show Bath Bayakha, where she was first recognized for her work as a writer and actress. Later in 2012, she founded her own production company which she called Filmizion Productions, and through the company, she created and starred in her first Web series titled Femaleshow. The show attracted millions of viewers from across the region online, which led to it being aired on different TV stations around the region. Becky Anderson described her as a national phenomena in a CNN interview with the young filmmaker. Currently, she is working on creating the second original Arabic Netflix series, in collaboration with her Jordanian production company Filmizion Productions, titled AlRawabi School for Girls.
