Najafi was born in Iran, and came to Sweden as a refugee at the age of 11, when his family fled from the Iran–Iraq War.[2] Two of his brothers remained in Tehran, and it took 11 years before they met again.[2] The family settled in Uppsala, where he spent his childhood.[2] Between 1998 and 2002, he studied documentary directing at the Dramatiska Institutet.[1][2]
Najafi made his English-language film debut with London Has Fallen (2016), the sequel to the 2013 film Olympus Has Fallen. The film was released to mostly negative reviews,[5] but earned 205.8 million against a 60 million budget.[6]
