"Amin brings a level of authenticity and a powerful on screen presence that we felt was the ultimate fit for the portrayal of Dr. Refaat Ismail. With such a strong local cast paired with striking special effects, we can't wait to get production underway next month," Amr Salama -- show-runner, producer and director -- said in a press release.

This will be Netflix's first original Egyptian drama.
