Mohamed Ramadan Lands Next Film Role
Egyptian actor Mohamed Ramadan has lined up his next movie role.
The untitled project sees Ramadan teaming up again with producer Ahmed El Sobky for the first time in seven years.
It also marks the pair's four collaboration after "Abdo Mota" (2012), "Qalb Al-Assad" (2013), and "El Diesel" (2018).
Ramadan is currently busy shooting Mohamed Diab's historical action thriller film "Assad".
Maged El Kedwany, Khaled Elsawy, Razane Jammal, Sherif Salama, Aly Kassem, Ahmed Khaled Saleh, and Ahmed Dash, are also on board to star.
Mohamed Diab directs from a script he co-wrote with Sherine Diab and Khaled Diab.
"Assad" is set in 1280 AD in the Mamluk era and features Ramadan portraying Ali bin Muhammad Al-Farsi, who is sold in the slave market and later leads the revolution against the Abbasid army.
Ramadan previously said that the film took three years to prepare for, and because of it, he didn't make any new TV series due to the film's complexity and time frame.
"Assad" reunites Ramadan with Dash for the third time after working together on the 2023 TV series "
Gaafar El Omda
" and the 2020 TV series "
Al Prince
".
It also marks the actor's second foray into the historical genre, after starring in 2017's "The Treasure" and its follow-up, 2019's "The Treasure 2: Love and Destiny", both directed by Sherif Arafa.
Ramadan, born on May 23, 1988, began acting while at school. He launched his career with small roles in TV series like 'The Cinderella' until he had his big break in Yousry Nasrallah's 'Ehky Ya Sharazad' (Tell me, Shahrazad).
He then went on to star in blockbusters produced by the famous Egyptian producers Mohamed and Ahmed El Sobky, which made him one of the most bankable actors in the Middle East.
Ramadan began exploring the music scene in the past years.

Musicians Syndicate to hold memorial for shaabi singer Ahmed Amer - Screens - Arts & Culture
Headed by Mostafa Kamel, Egypt's Musicians Syndicate plans to hold a special memorial for a young shaabi singer who died suddenly last Wednesday at the age of 42. Amer, a most promising talent in the Egyptian shaabi music scene, died after suffering a sudden health crisis following his performance at an event in Mansoura. According to the media, he was en route to his home in Cairo when his condition worsened. He was taken to a nearby hospital but died upon arrival, reportedly from a heart attack. In an official statement by the Musicians Syndicate, Kamel stated that the late singer was a model of integrity, professionalism, and kindness. "The Syndicate will always take pride in its members who are known for their good character and honourable legacy. Ahmed Amer was one of the distinguished examples we are proud of, and he will be deeply missed by the artistic and humanitarian community alike," Kamel said, lamenting the late singer. He added that the Syndicate will hold the memorial in recognition of his value, his standing, and the positive impact he left in the hearts of his colleagues and admirers. The memorial details have not been provided yet. Born in Samanoud in Gharbia Governorate, Amer began singing at a young age, often performing covers of old songs, especially those by Medhat Saleh. He later moved on to singing at local wedding celebrations and began composing songs, leaning towards shaabi and mahraganat genres. During his musical career, Amer's repertoire amassed several hits, including Maba'etsh Mestaghrab, El Kol Khab, and Soheba B-Million Wish, among others.
