Young Egyptian actress, Dina Fouad, is a relative newcomer to the entertainment scene but she has already made waves with her acting skills and charming good looks.

The starlet has been working her way through a number of low key TV series in her home country but this year could be her year to go from scullery maid to belle of the ball as, according to Middle East news portal, Elaph, she has landed herself a 'Cinderella' role.

The actress is set to play the same part as Egyptian diva, Suad Hosni, known as the Cinderella of Egyptian Cinema, in upcoming TV drama, 'Al Zawjah al Thania' (The Second Wife).

The TV series is a re-make of the original film that Suad starred in and Dina has already been telling reporters how much she admires the late actress.

The Second Wife has been a long time coming, after a series of financial hiccups looked set to stop the drama ever making it on to the small screen. But producers say any problems have now been ironed out and they are ready and raring to go.
