Egyptian actor Amir Karara has signed on to star in the action comedy film "Shoghl Cairo".

Hussein El Menbawy directs the pic from a script by Mostafa Sakr. SynergyPlus is the studio behind the project.

"Shoghl Cairo" marks Karara's third venture into the action comedy genre after the 2023 film "Baebae" (The Bogeyman) and the 2025 film "El Shater".

Karara, widely recognized for his commanding presence in action-packed thrillers, taking on a refreshing twist in the upcoming project and blending high-stakes suspense with lighthearted comedy.

"Shoghl Cairo" promises to deliver a fast-paced reflection of contemporary dynamics packaged in the actor's signature cinematic flair.
