Egyptian actress Amina Khalil has joined the cast of actors Amr Youssef and Mohamed Mamdouh's film "Shaqo" (Brothers).
The film is helmed by Karim El Sobky and is slated to begin shooting in mid-June.
"Shaqo" marks the fifth collaboration between Khalil and Mamdouh, after the TV series “Khali Balek Min ZiZi”, “La Totfe’ Al Shams”, “Qabeel”, and the film “Al Khalia”.
Khalil was last seen in the TV series “Al Aedoon”.
It also starred Amir Karara, Mahmoud Abdel Moghni, Mohamed Farrag, Jihane Khalil, Eslam Gamal, Mohamed Ezz, and others.
Director Ahmed Nader Galal helmed from a script by Baher Dowidar. It was filmed in 5 countries, including Europe and Jordan.
The series tackles a separate story from its predecessor “Hagma Mortada” and is not an extension of it.
“Al Aedoon” is based on a true story and depicts the changes in the Arab region, and how the Egyptian state dealt with the threats it faced in 2018-2020.
