A month after production for the long-awaited film A NOSE AND THREE EYES began on August 23rd, the film’s production team just announced that blockbuster star Amina Khalil has joined the film's cast.
Produced by Lagoonie Film Production in collaboration with Rise Studio, A NOSE AND THREE EYES is a contemporary rendition of Abdel-Quddous' novel, which was originally adapted into a film in 1972.
A NOSE AND THREE EYES revolves around Doctor Hashem — a renowned plastic surgeon in his mid-40s who remains single despite having been in two long-term relationships before.
However, when he meets Ruba — a woman who is 25 years his junior — he finds himself unable to resist her charms and allure despite the age gap.
Directed by Amir Ramsis and scriptwriter Wael Hamdy, A NOSE AND THREE EYES has a starry ensemble cast that includes Dhaffer L'Abidine, Saba Mubarak, Salma Abudeif, Sedky Sakhr, Gihan El-Shamashergy, Salwa Mohamed Ali, Nabil Maher, and Selim Mostafa — the child celebrity who won audiences' hearts in the role of Younis in WHY NOT? — as well as Amina Khalil, who will be appearing as a guest of honor after Dina El Sherbiny had to step away from the project.
