"Al Mashrue X" Enters All-Time Highest-Grossing Egyptian Film List
Yara Sameh
Egyptian stars Karim Abdel Aziz and Yasmine Sabri's film "Al Mashrue X" ("Project X") is officially one of the highest-grossing films at the domestic box office.
"Al Mashrue X" hit theatres and IMAX on May 21 and has so far grossed EGP115 million, coming sixth in the highest-grossing films in the history of Egyptian cinema.
The pic features an ensemble cast that includes Eyad Nassar, Mariam El Gendy, Essam El Sakka, Ahmed Ghozzi, and more. Hannah El Zahed and Maged El Kedwany will also make an appearance in the project.
Peter Mimi directed the film from a script he co-wrote with Ahmed Hosny. Synergy Plus is the studio behind the pic.
The film's official logline reads: "When a troubled archaeologist uncovers ancient secrets that could revolutionize the world's energy supply, he becomes the target of a shadowy organization determined to keep the knowledge buried. In a race against time and powerful enemies, he must decide between revealing the truth and protecting his daughter from the deadly forces closing in on them."
"Al Mashrue X" witnesses the first collaboration between Sabri and Mimi and the third between Abdel Aziz and Mimi after the blockbuster film "Beit El Ruby" as well as the hit TV series 'El Ekhteyar S1 & S2" and "Al-Hashashin".
The pic is one of the high-budget projects this year, with the shooting taking place in several countries, including Egypt, Turkey, Spain, and Italy.

You Can Now Order Sojouk & Kebda On Egypt's North Coast
From downtown cravings to Sahel's sunbeds, Na2Na2a brings its kebda, sogo2 and feteer game to La Vista Ras El Hekma and Cascada. Because why grill at home when they can do it better? Jun 23, 2025 The Sahel season has officially begun — and so has the annual migration of Cairo's street food. This year, Na2Na2a, the cult-favourite known for its sizzling sojouk, kebda sandwiches, feteer and late-night cravings, is staking its claim on the North Coast with two new pop-ups at La Vista Ras El Hekma and La Vista Cascada. For many, Na2Na2a has been that reliable fix after long nights and longer car rides, a portable slice of Egyptian street life. Now, it's trading downtown asphalt for Sahel's sand, serving up its signature grills and stuffed feteer under the sun. Because nothing says 'authentic summer' quite like biting into hot kebda while your flip-flops fill with sand. The two new locations officially opened on June 6th, just in time to join Sahel's ever-growing list of beachfront food spots that blend nostalgia with the season's beachside buzz.

"The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon" Season 3 Sets Premiere Date and First Look
Yara Sameh 'The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon' will return with Season 3 on September 7. The spin-off series, starring Norman Reedus as Daryl and Melissa McBride as Carol, will air at 9 p.m. ET on AMC and AMC+. The upcoming season focuses on the pair trying to make their way home, but encountering more obstacles along the way. The cast also includes Candela Saitta, Gonzalo Bouza, Hada Nieto, Yassmine Othman, Cuco Usín, Stephen Merchant, Hugo Arbués, and Greta Fernández. New series regulars are Eduardo Noriega, Óscar Jaenada, and Alexandra Masangkay. Executive producers include Reedus, McBride, showrunner David Zabel, Scott M. Gimple, Greg Nicotero, Angela Kang, Brian Bockrath, Jason Richman, Dan Percival, and Steve Squillante; Silvia Aráez and Jesús de la Vega also executive produce via Ánima Stillking. 'I couldn't be more thrilled to announce a third season and to be working side by side with the brilliant Melissa McBride,' Reedus previously said in a statement. 'Season 2 is some of my favorite storytelling of this series. Watching Melissa shine along with our brilliant cast and crew has been one of my fondest memories playing this character.' McBride joined the series, set in Europe, in Season 2, although it was initially supposed to focus on both Daryl and Carol from the beginning. 'It's one of the things that distinguishes us from the other 'Walking Dead' shows — that we get to show how different parts of the world have responded to the walker apocalypse and the different impact it has had in different places and come up with some cool, new things that you don't see in the American versions,' Zabel told Variety last year. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Videos & Features Video: Trending Lifestyle TikToker Valeria Márquez Shot Dead during Live Stream News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan Technology 50-Year Soviet Spacecraft 'Kosmos 482' Crashes into Indian Ocean
