Egyptian actor Asser Yassin is preparing to participate in Ramadan 2024 drama marathon with the TV series “Nesat Kelmt Al Ser” (I Forgot The Password).
The project is a TV adaptation of Hassan Kamal's novel of the same name and was initially set to screen during the Ramadan 2023 drama marathon.
“Nesat Kelmt Al Ser” consists of 15 episodes and is centered around an Egyptian athlete suffering from Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) — a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord — the same disease former football player Moamen Zakaria has been diagnosed with.
It also highlights the social and political events Egypt has experienced in the last 10 years.
Yassin, born February 25, 1981, began his career on the stage of the American University in Cairo.
He was spotted by Director Khairy Beshara to play his first role in the 2006 TV series "Qalb Habiba", followed by the blockbuster "The Yacoubian Building" in 2007.
Yassin starred in his first major film in 2008's "Zay El Naharda" (2008).
In the same year, he got his big break playing a leading role in the film "El Waad" (The Promise), starring opposite legendary actor and superstar Mahmoud Yassin.
In 2010, Yassin played the leading role in Daoud Abdel Sayed's film "Messages from the Sea", which earned him the Best Actor award at the Carthage Film Festival and Malmö Arab Film Festival.
