Tunisian actress Hend Sabry is attached to star in the upcoming TV adaptation of writer and journalist Ibrahim Eissa's latest novel “Dam ala Nahd."
Mariam Ahmadi is directing the series from a script being adapted by Mohamed Hesham Obeya.
"Dam ala Nahd" consists of 15 episodes and is produced by Sadek Al-Sabah.
The novel follows Mai El Gebali, who had no idea that her exclusive interview with the "butcher" before his execution would turn her life upside down.
With each meeting with the "butcher", he reveals secrets he never confessed before during the investigations.
Along the way, El Gebali begins to question everything she'd previously believed in, disrupts her relationships, and puts her life in danger.
Sabry made her last appearance on the small screen in the second season of her hit Netflix TV series "Finding Ola".
The cast features returing main cast Sawan Badr, Nada Mousa, Mahmoud El Leithy, Yasmina El-Abd, and more.
It also reunited Sabry and Dhafer L’Abidine for the third time after working together in 2017's "Halawet El Donia" and 2012's "Vertigo".
The series is written by Maha El Wazir and Ghada Abd El Aal and influenced by the main characters of the popular 2010 hit TV series “Ayza Atgawez” (I Want to Get Married), which Abd El Aal wrote.
Released by Netflix in February 2022, "Finding Ola" featured Sabry as a middle-class, Cairo pharmacist desperate to get married before she turns 30.
The six-episode series saw the return of beloved character Ola Abdelsabour (Played by Sabry) after ten years as she navigates life’s many challenges while trying to find the balance between her role as a mother, wife, and entrepreneur.
In season 2, Abdelsabour returned on a new adventure with her family, as she finds herself forced to work with Karim, the son of her company’s product supplier.
The role propelled Sabry to household name status across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) in the 2010s.
