Veteran Egyptian actor Salah al-Saadani, who plays a father in a television show based on the movie "The Enemy Brothers", has said viewers will see that his performance is quite different from that of acclaimed actor Yehia Chahine, who essayed the same role in the 1977 original cinematic version. "The character will appear in a completely different image even in mannerisms, so there will be no room for comparisons between me and Yehia Chahine who played the same character before," Saadani said to Arabstoday. "Such a rich story could be introduced in so many different ways, like the series 'al-Batniya', that was completely different from the movie produced nearly 30 years ago. We can also remember that the great actor Mahmoud Morsi achieved massive success when he played Ahmed Abdelgawad in a TV series based on the "Naguib Mahfouz Trilogy", although the same character was successfully played before and by the same actor [Yehia Chahine] in film," he added. Both the movie and the series are based on the Russian novel "The Kramazof Brothers", written by Fyodor Dostoyevsky. The movie was produced in 1997, and starred Yehia Chahine, Nour el-Sherif, Hussein Fahmy and Mohy Ismail, while the series will be broadcast this Ramadan, after 3 weeks.
