Red Star and New Century Production have released the official trailer of the much anticipated thriller film The Originals by director Marwan Hamed, which is set to release in Egyptian theatres this year.

The trailer features the film's lead actors in a mysteriously dark atmosphere with different shots of wild animals and plants, which gets the audience excited enough to watch the latest film by director Marwan Hamed.

The Originals is the fourth feature film by Marwan Hamed. Written by Ahmed Mourad as his first cinematic screenplay, the film is a co-production of Red Star and New Century Production and it features an all-star cast including; Menna Shalaby, Maged El Kedwany, and Kinda Alloush, together with Khaled El Sawy and Mohamed Mamdouh, who worked before with Hamed in The Blue Elephant (2014), and DOP Ahmad Al Morsy.

Hamed's and Mourad's latest collaboration, The Blue Elephant, turned out to be a great success and gained wide critical acclaim. The film exceeded EGP 31 million in the Egyptian box office. The Blue Elephant screened at many regional and international film festivals and won several awards, four of them were given to Marwan.
