Mahmoud El Khatib Makes Surprise Cameo in Netflix's "Catalog" Series
Yara Sameh Egyptian football legend Mahmoud El Khatib, president of Cairo giants Al Ahly, has delighted fans with his surprise cameo in Netflix original series "Catalog". This is El Khatib's second venture in the acting scene. He made his acting debut in the 1982 film "Gharib fi Bayti," starring Soad Hosny and Nour El-Sherif. El Khatib's participation in the series, which debuted Friday on the giant streamer, was at the special request of his close friend, the late veteran actor Nabil El Halfawy, with whom he had a long-standing friendship. Before his death, El Halfawy had asked Al-Ahly legend to support his son, director Waleed El Halfawy, who was at the time preparing to film the series. The football legend complied with his friend's request, appearing in a touching scene in which he delivers a message about the primary role the father plays in supporting their children, and the importance of a father being a true supporter who instills values and principles in them. Penned by Ayman Wattar, "Catalog" is set in Cairo and follows Youssef (Mohamed Farrag), a father of two reeling from the sudden loss of his wife, Amina (Riham Abdel Ghafour). However, Youssef finds a lifeline in the most unexpected place: a series of parenting videos his late wife recorded before her death. Each video becomes more than just a guide to a different life — they're breadcrumbs and a lifeline leading Youssef back to his children, himself, and to a version of fatherhood he never imagined he had. The series' official logline reads:" After the loss of his wife, Youssef, a devoted father, navigates the ups and downs of parenthood while carrying the weight of grief." The cast also includes Samah Anwar, Tara Emad, Ali El Beialy, Retal Abd El Aziz, Donia Sami, Sedky Sakhr, Dina Samy, Khaled Kamal, Bayoumi Fouad, and more. "Catalog" combines emotional rawness with gentle humor, exploring not only the grief but also the process of rebuilding. The drama marks Abdel Ghafour and Farag's second collaboration after the series adaptation of 'Room 207'. 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 Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results Arts & Culture Hawass Foundation Launches 1st Course to Teach Ancient Egyptian Language
