Egyptian actress Eman El Assi has landed her first lead role in the TV series “Beraghm Al Qanun” (Despite the Law).
Singer-actor Hany Adel is also attached to star in the series.
Shadi Abdel Salam directs the series from a script by Naglaa El Heddeeny.
“Beraghm Al Qanun” is produced by Egyptian Arts Group and is slated to screen during the off-season.
El Assi made her last appearance on the small screen in the hit TV series “Gaafar El Omda”.
The series was one of the most-watched TV series during its premiere in the Ramadan 2023 drama marathon and featured the usual Mohamed Ramadan fix.
It also starred Zeina, Mai Kassab, Menna Fadali, Hala Sedki, Ahmed Dash, and others.
The series was scripted and directed by Mohamed Sami and marked Ramadan and Sami’s fourth collaboration after the 2020 TV series “Al Prince”, the 2016 TV series “Al-Ostora”, and the 2017 film “Jawab E'teqal”.
In June 2023, the TV series was renewed for season 2, with Mohamed Sami returning to direct from a screenplay he co-wrote with Mohab Tarek. Media Hub is the studio behind the series.
El Assi, born on August 28, 1985, is a Business Administration graduate.
She entered the entertainment industry by sheer coincidence when she took part in a photo session that ended with the photographer asking for her permission to publish one of the photos in a female magazine, to which she agreed.
It was later published as the magazine cover and was seen by renowned director Khaled Bahgat, who nominated her for a role in the 2003 TV series “Ams la yamoot” co-starring Raghda and Ryad Al Kholy.
She was nominated for her resemblance to Raghda, whom she played her daughter.
Later on, El Assi was nominated by director Haitham Hakky for the 2006 TV series “Ahlam fel Bawaba” co-starring Samira Ahmed, then took part in the TV series “Ragol w emraatan”, playing Dalal Abd El Aziz and Farouk El Fishawy’s daughter.
She also took part in the TV series “Daawt Farah” co-starring once again with Samira Ahmed.
Her golden opportunity came when director Rabab Hussien nominated her to co-star with renowned actor Nour El Sherif in the hit TV series “Hadret El Motaham Abby”.
El Assi is best known for her roles in films “Harb Karmooz” (2018), “Hamaty Bet-hebbeny” (2014), “Maklab Haramiya” (2009), and, “Masgoun Tranzit” (2008).
She is also known for her roles in TV productions such as "Jafar El Omda" (2023), "El Ekhteyar 3" (2022), "Ella Ana 2" (2021), "Bekhat Eleid" (2020), “Lams Aktaf” (2019), “El Hessab Yegmaa” (2017), “Amrad Nesaa”(2014), “El Horoub” (2012), “Al-Adhm” (2009), and “Hadret El Motaham Abby” (2006).
