"Catalog " Gets Premiere Date and First Look

The first look and premiere date for Netflix’s highly anticipated original series "Catalog" have finally been unveiled.

The cast includes some of the region’s most beloved stars: Riham Abdel Ghafour Mohamed Farag, Samah Anwar, Tara Emad, Ali El Beialy, Retal Abd El Aziz, Donia Sami, Sedky Sakhr, Dina Samy, Khaled Kamal, Bayoumi Fouad, and more.

Directed by Waleed El Halafawy and penned by Ayman Wattar, "Catalog" is set in Cairo and follows Youssef "Farag), a father of two reeling from the sudden loss of his wife, Amina (Abdel Ghafour). 

However, Youssef finds a lifeline in the most unexpected place: a series of parenting videos his late wife recorded before her death.

Each video becomes more than just a guide to a different life — they’re breadcrumbs and a lifeline leading Youssef back to his children, himself, and to a version of fatherhood he never imagined he had.

The series' official logline reads:" After the loss of his wife, Youssef, a devoted father, navigates the ups and downs of parenthood while carrying the weight of grief."

"Catalog" combines emotional rawness with gentle humor, exploring not just the grief, but the process of rebuilding.

The drama marks Abdel Ghafour and Farag's second collaboration after the series adaptation of “Room 207“.

"Catalog" is set to debut on Thursday, July 17 on Netflix.
