Faizal made his first film appearance in the film Darah Panglima in 1972, at the age of five.

Starting acting in 1982 with the film Senja Merah, he jumped up after starring Gila-Gila Remaja in 1986 as Azroy. Directed by his father, the late Hussein Abu Hassan, he made a huge impact for Faizal to prove his family's artistic blood.

After that, he gained a lot of attention and starred in several films that featured him playing the protagonist. After almost three years of not appearing in a movie, he finally got the offer to bring the antagonist through Leftenan Adnan.

In 2013, Faizal returned to the role of Azroy in a movie directed by V. Nagaraj, Gila-Gila Remaja 2, the continuation of the 1985 movie, Gila-Gila Remaja that directed by his father.[4] This film was also starred by Hairul Azreen, Faralyna Idris, Taiyuddin Bakar, Fizz Fairuz, and Bella Dally.

On 17 January 2015, Faizal played the main character along with Sari Yanti in the television film, Penjara Seorang Isteri based on Salmah and Zaid's wedding on the basis of mutual love and their marriage was given two shades. In this television film, based on a true story, Faizal acted as Zaid.

Working under the direction of Pekin Ibrahim, Faizal succeeded in acting as Pit in the film Mat Moto released on 14 January 2016.[5]
