‘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\u2019s on a scale that perhaps no movie from the Gulf has ever been attempted on.<\/p>\n

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.<\/h2>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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!<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

While the official release date hasn\u2019t been announced yet, the trailer definitely has fans of the book super excited.<\/h2>\n
