Ahmed Malek to Participate in Ramadan 2027 Drama Marathon

Egyptian actor Ahmed Malek is set to participate in the Ramadan 2027 drama marathon with a 15-episode TV series. 

Malek participated last Ramadan with the TV series “Sawa Sawa".

Essam Abdel Hamid directed the drama from a script by Mohab Tarek.

"Sawa Sawa" marked another collaboration between Malek and Huda El Mufti.

They worked together on the 2024 TV series “Matam Al Habib”, the 2021 TV series "Bimbo", the 2022 TV series "Tahqiq", and the 2023 epic historical film "Kira & El Gin".

The cast also includes Khaled Kamal, Hosny Sheta, Sherif Desoky, Fatma Adel, Mahmoud Alsarraj, Fotouh Ahmed, Hani El Tombari, Noha Abdeen, Adham Zehni, Abduel Aziz Makhyoon, Mohamed Youssef, Ahmed Abdelhamid, and more.

The official logline for the series reads: "Two men want Ahlam—one for love, one for control. She’s claimed utterly: her body failing and her existence contested. Rivaling a man who cages “love”, Ibrahim fights not just to guard her heart, but to keep it beating."

Born on September 29, 1995, Malek landed his first role in the 2005 TV series "Ayamna el helwa" (Our Good Days). 

A few years later, he made his feature debut in the 2008 film "Mafish Fayda", starring Moustafa Amar and Basma.

Malek would later find international fame with roles in critically acclaimed films such as "Clash" (2016), "Sheikh Jackson" (2017), and "Leil Khargi" (2018) - all of which have been selected to represent Egypt in international film festivals and award circuits.
