Egyptian actress Ghada Adel is collaborating once again with actor Mohamed Mamdouh in the film “Hiroshima”.
It is scripted by Ayman Bahgat Amar and directed by Khaled Marei. Principal photography is slated to begin in the second half of next December.
The duo is also teaming up in the historical epic film “Ahl al-Kahf”.
The film features an ensemble cast that includes Khaled El Nabawy, Ghada Adel, Mahmoud Hamida, Mohamed Farag, Amr Abdel Gelil, Ahmed Fouad Selim, Reem Moustafa, Sabry Fawaz, Abdel Rahman Abou Zahra, Hager Ahmed, Maged El Masry, and others.
It is based on Tawfik el-Hakim’s novel of the same title and is adapted by Ayman Bahgat Kamar and directed by Amr Arafa.
“Ahl al-Kahf” takes place in 250 AD and is shot in three countries: Ireland, Morocco, and Egypt.
The plot revolves around the human struggle against time that struggle is represented by three people who wake after sleeping for over three centuries to find themselves in a different era than the one they previously lived.
The film also depicts interesting historical tales such as the great conflicts between Adel’s character and El Nabawy, as she stands against the king (Fahmy) against him.
The project is considered one of the largest productions in Egyptian cinema, given the cast participating in the pic and the use of the entire action team from London to design the stunts and fight scenes.
