Production has resumed on Nelly Karim and Mohamed Ramadan's upcoming film "Ala Zero".

The shooting halted due to the pair being busy with their TV series for the Ramadan drama marathon.

Khaled El Sawy, Jumana Mourad, and Sherif Desouky will also star in the film.

The film is scripted by Medhat El Adl, directed by Mando El Adl, and produced by El Adl Group.

It tackles an important issue: organ trade and includes various genres such as drama, action, and romance.

The project marks Karim's comeback to the big screen after two years of absence. She made her last cinematic appearance in the 2021 film “Tuesday 12”.

Karim will next be seen in the third season of the TV series "Leh La".

It also stars Salah Abdullah, Aida Riad, Ahmed Tarek, Moataz Hisham, and others.

Director Nadine Khan helmed the series from a script by screenwriter Mariam Naoum and her team in the SARD workshop.

The series is set to debut soon on the "Shahid" streaming platform.

"Leh La" focuses on the challenges and difficulties that Egyptian women face. Season one followed a character played by Amina Khalil, and season two followed a new story starring Menna Shalaby.

Karim focused on the injustice women face in divorce courts in last year’s "Faten Amal Harby", and discussed the cruel conditions Egypt's female debtors - known as 'Gharemaat' - subjected to on a daily basis in 2014's "Segn El Nesaa".
