Dr. Medhat El-Adl expressed his admiration and appreciation for the career of actor Mina Massoud, praising his first step into leading a film role in Egypt through the movie Fi Ezz El-Dohor. El-Adl emphasized that true success is only complete when achieved among one’s home audience, saying:
“Despite the great success he’s had abroad, a person always dreams of succeeding among their own people and the audience they grew up with. I completely understand what Mina is feeling right now, and God willing, he will achieve great success and be a strong addition not only to the arts, but also to the name of Egypt.”

Speaking about the current state of Egyptian cinema, El-Adl expressed optimism about the artistic movement being led by young creatives, stating:
“What’s happening now is promising — there’s youthful energy working and dreaming, whether they’re writers or directors… and we need to support each other. That’s only natural in the evolution of any industry; each generation paves the way for the next.”
As for his experience with musical productions, El-Adl noted that he hasn’t yet created a musical in the traditional sense, but he has explored similar forms, such as the play Charlie Chaplin and the film Ice Cream in Gleem. He added that he doesn’t rule out returning to that genre someday, mentioning that he’s currently focused on his project El Masnaa (The Factory), but said:
“If a young artist comes to me with a truly strong musical idea… why not? I might even help produce it.”
It’s worth noting that the premiere of Fi Ezz El-Dohor saw a strong turnout from the arts community to support Mina Massoud in his first starring role in Egypt. Among those in attendance were Dr. Medhat El-Adl, actor Ahmed Wafik, as well as several stars from the film and other well-known figures in the artistic scene, including Mahmoud Hegazy, Sherine Reda, Rasha Mahdi, and Heidi Karam, along with many filmmakers and art enthusiasts.
