Prominent Egyptian actress Yusra is currently holding extensive work sessions with renowned director Majdi Abu Ameerih to prepare for her upcoming television drama “Ana Baree’a” (I Am Innocent). Yusra refused to reveal any details about the drama, stressing that she wants to keep it as a surprise for her audience.

 

According to the London based weekly, Laha, Yusra has just completed shooting the final scenes of her upcoming film “Kalam Fil Hub” (Love Talk) alongside Egyptian actor Hisham Salim and actress Hannan Turk. It was revealed that the scenes were filmed in Sharm El Sheikh instead of Morocco and Syria due to the high cost of filming.

 

World-renowned producer Alan Haymen has nominated Yusra and Dalia Al Buhairi for his upcoming film “Nefertiti Queen of the Nile”, in which filming of the scenes will take place in Egypt at the beginning of the upcoming year. Alan also nominated Egyptian actors Hani Salama and Khaled Al Nabawi to take part in the film.

 

Hayman, who recently left Cairo, met with the Egyptian Minister of Information to decide on the final details of the production and filming of the new film in Egypt. The film has a budget of 100 million US dollars and 40 percent is to be allocated in Egypt alone.

 

Ahmad Othman, who currently resides in England, wrote the script and international director Hue Hudson has been nominated to direct the film, which will be an international one. Othman has noted that the remaining cast of the film have not been chosen yet, but revealed the leading roles will be given to internationally known actors, most likely from Hollywood.

 

Hayman had met with the Egyptian actors, who will be given secondary roles, during his trip to Egypt. It has been added that filming of the scenes will take place in Al Aqsar for a period of five weeks then another fifteen weeks at the Egyptian Media Production City.
