The Trailer For ‘HWJN’ Just Dropped And It’s Shaping Up To Be The Grandest Saudi-Made Film Of All Time

Avatar

‘HWJN,’ the super cool fantasy romance flick, is one of the most anticipated movies in Saudi. The trailer for the movie just dropped, and it’s on a scale that perhaps no movie from the Gulf has ever been attempted on.

Based on a book that was a literary sensation in Saudi Arabia when it hit shelves in 2013, it blends a Twilight-esque love story with Arabic folklore.

Now, it’s hitting the big screen, and it’s going to be one heck of a ride! The story revolves around HWJN, a kind-hearted jinn living in modern-day Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. He’s on a mind-blowing quest to reclaim his birthright while battling ancient evils, and he falls for Sawsan, a young med student.

The movie looks top-notch, promising a slick, high-end production that will blow fans and audiences away in the Middle East. And who knows, it might even travel far beyond!

Directed by the talented Yasir Al Yasiri from Dubai and starring a bunch of rising Saudi actors, including Baraa Alem, Nour Alkhadra, Nayef Althifery, and Mohsen Mansour.

While the official release date hasn’t been announced yet, the trailer definitely has fans of the book super excited.
