Khaberni - In his meeting with the media personality Ibrahim Fayeq, on the podcast "Fayeq Wrayeq" which he presents on "YouTube”, Amro Abdel Jalil expressed his great displeasure about being typecast in villain roles, explaining that he is seriously considering retiring from acting if this typecasting continues.
Amro said, "When I worked in (Alexandria Again and Again), the role was not comedic and was complex. I spent a period struggling in my life trying to convince them that I could do comedy, and they would tell me, what do you have to do with comedy?".
He continued, "For years in my life, I've only been doing villain roles, and I’m always the villain in someone's story or all their stories. Why do they see me that way? I don't know what to do and it's bothering me right now, and I'm thinking about leaving acting altogether if it continues this way."
Amro Abdel Jalil reveals a surprise about his most famous catchphrases
During the meeting, Abdel Jalil talked about his famous catchphrase "The heaviness of your mother’s blood" which he delivered in the movie "Friday Market", where he revealed a surprise that the entire scene was his own creation and vision. He discussed it with the late director Sameh Abdel Aziz and convinced him to present it while maintaining the dramatic framework of the scene, and that he met with all the colleagues involved in the scene and explained his idea, and indeed, the scene was executed as it appeared in the movie.
Abdel Jalil disclosed that the actor Sabry Fawaz could not hold back his laughter throughout the filming of that scene, which was actually evident in the movie.
