The Egyptian Actors Association has issued an order against young Egyptian actor Ahmad Izz, forbidding him from acting in any new film , after producer Mohammad Al Adel filed a complaint against him. Al Adel demanded that Ahmad honor the contract he signed with him and begin shooting scenes for agreed upon films.
Adel stressed that Ahmad’s contract will not be renewed. He argued that an actor should respect the production company he signs a contract with and not walk away without prior notice. Adel added that if Ahmad refuses to fulfill his obligations he will demands full compensation.
On his part, Ahmad claims that he will not act in any film unless the role offered suits him, and if Adel presents him with a good film he will not hesitate to accept and begin shooting. Ahmad added that if he receives a tempting offer from a producer for a new film or even ten, he will accept it and will consider it a step ahead in his career.
Since the start of his career Ahmad signed eight contracts with different producers to star in their films, but failed to act in any of them. The actor’s blatant disregard for the contracts led the Actors Association to take a firm stance against him. The Association claims he created disputes among producers, and randomly signed contracts for different projects at the same time, thinking it would help him reach stardom.
