The $40 million project from the 'Bad Boys for Life' directorial duo is being shot at the newly inaugurated Alhisn Big Time Studios in Riyadh, one of the Middle East and North Africa region's biggest film and television production facilities, with additional filming at Riyadh Boulevard. Riyadh will also serve as a stand-in for multiple international cities, including Mumbai and Shanghai.
The thriller is based on an original story by Turki Alalshikh, chairman of Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority.
Egyptian stars Karim Abdel Aziz ('The Blue Elephant,' 'Kira & El Gin,' 'Abu Ali') and Ahmed Ezz ('Kira & El Gin,' 'The Cell,' 'Welad Rizk') headline the action film.
Ezz plays Interpol officer Khalid Al-Azzazi who apprehends Ghali Abu Dawood (Aziz), a high-ranking member of the clandestine global crime syndicate known as Seven Dogs. A year later, the organization resurfaces, trafficking a dangerous new drug — Pink Lady — across the Middle East.
With time running out, Khalid reluctantly joins forces with Ghali, the only person with intimate knowledge of the syndicate's operations. Their uneasy alliance propels them on a high-stakes mission across multiple global cities as they strive to dismantle the organization and prevent the drug from flooding Arab streets.
'Seven Dogs' is slated for a late 2025 release.

Indonesian police suspect 3 Australians of premeditated murder of a fellow national in Bali
Indonesian police investigating the fatal shooting of an Australian tourist at a villa on the resort island of Bali said Thursday that two Australians are suspected of arriving on a scooter and opening fire, and another Australian of facilitating the crime. Zivan Radmanovic, a 32-year-old from Melbourne, was killed just after midnight on June 13 at a villa near Munggu Beach in Bali's Badung district. A second man, a 34-year-old from Melbourne, was left beaten in the attack. Police previously announced that they had arrested three Australian men and, at a news conference Thursday, gave new details of an investigation they said was supported by the Australian Federal Police. Investigators have not revealed a motive in the killing but said they have enough evidence to bring the men to trial on charges of premeditated murder, which could carry a life sentence or the death penalty. The crime scene investigation and surveillance cameras have shown that two suspects, identified by their initials as MC and PT, were the shooters, Bali Police Chief Daniel Adityajaya told a news conference in Badung. The third suspect, identified as DJF, helped the others by buying a hammer used to break down the villa door, renting two cars and three motorcycles, and buying ferry and bus tickets to flee the island, Adityajaya said. One of the suspects was caught at Jakarta's Soekarno–Hatta international airport on June 16, and the following day the other two were arrested with the help of Interpol in Singapore and Cambodia and sent back to Indonesia. Police on Thursday presented the three suspects handcuffed and wearing orange prison uniforms. Witnesses at the villa told investigators that two gunmen arrived on a scooter at the villa around midnight. Radmanovic was shot in a bathroom of his room, where police found 18 bullet casings and two intact bullets. Radmanovic's partner, Jazmyn Gourdeas, 30, told police that she suddenly woke up when she heard her husband screaming. She cowered under a blanket when she heard multiple gunshots. She later found her husband's body and the other injured Australian, whose wife also testified to seeing the attackers. The women are sisters. Adityajaya said police have retrieved one of two guns that were thrown away by the suspects near a rice field about 700 meters (yards) from the villa. They also found bullet residues on gloves and balaclavas inside a white van used by the three men, and the same residues also were found on the bodies of two of the suspects. Police did not detail how they believe the suspects obtained the weapons, which are heavily regulated in Indonesia, but Adityajaya said police were still gathering evidence. Adityajaya said that the Australian national who survived the attack and the women have been relocated to a secure location.
