Audiences looking forward to Egyptian stars Mohamed Henedy and Mona Zaki’s long-gestating film “Al Gawahergy” are going to have to wait a little longer as the feature was not yet finished with selecting its ideal release date.
The film's journey to the big screen had been a long bumpy ride that dates back to 2022.
It was initially set to hit the cinemas during the Eid al-Fitr movie marathon in 2022 but got postponed indefinitely.
The pic landed an August 2024 release window, only to be delayed to the Eid al-Adha movie marathon in 2025 and then to July 30, only to be delayed once again.
“Al Gawahergy” landed a new release date for the 2026 Eid al-Adha movie marathon a month from now, only to be pushed back. The film is now set to release in theaters on August 5.
The production also boasts a cast that includes Lebleba, Ahmed El Saadany, Tara Emad, Bassem Samra, and more.
It also features a posthumous appearance from Ahmad Halawah.
Written by Islam Khairy and directed by Omar Taher, “Al Gawahergy” depicts the crises of marriage in a comedic setting.
The film witnesses the first collaboration between Henedy and Zaki after 23 years. They last starred together in the 1998 film “Saidi at the American University”.
