On the other hand, Abdel Aziz will make a guest appearance in the highly-anticipated TV series “El Ekhteyar: Regal el Zel” (The Choice: Men of Shadow), starring Karim Abdel Aziz and Ahmed Mekky.

The series is written by Hany Sarhan, directed by Peter Mimi and produced by Synergy production company.

It also stars Mohamed Farag, Eyad Nassar, Injy El Mokkaddem, Asma Abulyazeid, Mohammed Alaa, Eslam Gamal, Ahmed Shaker Abdul Latif, Ryad El Khouly and others.

“El Ekhteyar: Regal el Zel” will also feature late actor, Hady El-Gyar.

The production will center around the events of 2012 from a new angle as well as highlighting the martyrdom of the Ministry of Interior officers, who sacrificed themselves for the country during the period of 2013-2020.

In June 2020, Synergy, the production company for the first season of the production, announced that Abdel Aziz will be the leading actor in the sequel.

The first season starred Amir Karara as martyr Colonel Ahmed el-Mansy. The martyr was the commander of Sa’ka Forces (Thunderbolt Forces) battalion 103, who was martyred with several other members of his battalion on July 7th, 2017.

They were killed during clashes between Egyptian army forces and militants in a terror attack launched on an Egyptian armed forces checkpoint in El-Barth Village, Rafah, North Sinai.
