The Egyptian cinematic scene is gearing up for an exciting 2027 Eid al-Adha season, with actors Karem El-Abd and Ahmed Ezz poised to compete against each other. Karem El-Abd will star in the third installment of the film series "Al-Feel Al-Azraq" (The Blue Elephant), while Ahmed Ezz will appear in "Firqet Al-Mawt" (Death Squad). This competition is not new, as the two actors have previously faced off in multiple cinematic releases.
Karem El-Abd will reprise his role as Dr. Yahia Rashed in "Al-Feel Al-Azraq 3". The film is based on a novel by writer Ahmed Murad, who also wrote the screenplay. The movie is directed by Marwan Hamad, who has helmed the previous installments of the series. The film's plot follows Dr. Rashed as he navigates a new adventure after the events of the second part.
On the other hand, Ahmed Ezz will star in "Firqet Al-Mawt", an action-packed and thrilling film. In the movie, Ezz plays a police officer who is chosen to form a team tasked with taking down a powerful gang known as "Khat Al-Saeed". The film also stars Aaser Yaseen, Menna Shalby, and Amira Khleef.
The competition between Karem El-Abd and Ahmed Ezz is a recurring theme in Egyptian cinema. In 2021, they competed with their films "Al-Baath La Yadhab Lil-Mathn Marra" (Some People Don't Go to the Priest Twice) and "Al-Aarif" (The Knower), respectively. They also faced off in 2019 with "Al-Feel Al-Azraq 2" and "Wlad Ruzq 2".
Despite their on-screen competition, Karem El-Abd and Ahmed Ezz have collaborated on several projects. One notable example is the 2022 film "Kira wa Al-Gin", which was based on a novel by Ahmed Murad. The film tells the story of Egyptian resistance fighters during the British occupation.
Both actors have a track record of successful films that have grossed over 100 million Egyptian pounds at the box office. Karem El-Abd's films "Al-Feel Al-Azraq 2" and "Beit Al-Ruby" have achieved this feat, while Ahmed Ezz's "Wlad Ruzq" series has also been highly successful.
The upcoming releases of "Al-Feel Al-Azraq 3" and "Firqet Al-Mawt" are highly anticipated, and the competition between Karem El-Abd and Ahmed Ezz is expected to be fierce. Fans of Egyptian cinema are eagerly awaiting the 2027 Eid al-Adha season to see which film will come out on top.
