Galal stated Monday that he underwent a lot of preparations for the film, noting it personifies a true story in a cinematic form.

He noted, during a phone-in with TV anchor, Ahmed Moussa on "Alaa Masolyaty" program broadcast on "Sada ElBalad" satellite channel, that the shooting has not yet been completed.

It is scheduled for the film to be completed after the holy month of Ramadan due to its large volume.

Galal pointed out that the film is difficult to shoot and implement, noting that the film length will be approximately two hours and 10 minutes.

"It is a great honor that we embody the heroics of the Egyptian army and document the great event," he continued.

Galal emphasized that all the celebrities participating in the production are willing to embody just one scene in heroic epic action work, adding: "About 18 stars featured in it,".

He added that El Sakka will play the role of an agent, while Mounir plays the role of commander of the Air Force.

"The film centers around the countries that finance terrorism, and the psychological distortion of leaders of terrorist organizations," Abdel Halim told "Sada ElBalad".

The screenwriter noted that he had started working on the script in November 2019.

Abdel Halim explained that the concerned authorities, headed by the moral affairs, assisted in writing the script, stressing that all parties provided the necessary information to write and direct the film.

He continued, "We started shooting the 12th version of the script for the “Al Sarab” film, as the 11 copies were modified continuously,".
