‘The Seven Dogs’ will be the first film shot at Big Time Studios.

 

Turki Al-Sheikh, the Chairman of the Saudi General Entertainment Authority, has officially announced the commencement of filming for his latest project, The Seven Dogs. This film, featuring prominent Arab actors Karim Abdel-Aziz and Ahmed Ezz, represents a significant leap forward for Middle Eastern cinema, boasting a remarkable production budget of over $40 million.

 

Al-Sheikh took to Facebook to share this exciting news, posting a photo of the two leading stars and characterizing the moment as a historic milestone for both his career and the Arab film industry. He disclosed that the film is inspired by his own experiences, developed by the talented Big Time team, with a screenplay crafted by Mohamed El Dabbah. The project is directed by the internationally acclaimed duo, Adel and Bilal, known for their work on Bad Boys III.

 

This film also marks another collaboration between Abdel-Aziz and Ezz, who previously captivated audiences in the box-office success Kira & El Gin.

 

The Seven Dogs will be the inaugural production filmed at the newly established Al-Hisn Big Time Studios, touted as one of the largest and most advanced film production facilities in the Middle East.

 

While specific plot details are yet to be revealed, this ambitious project aims to set a new standard for Arab cinema through its innovative scale and state-of-the-art filmmaking techniques.
