Netflix releases first Arabic series

CAIRO – 4 September 2017: Netflix will be producing its first Arabic series, 'Netflix Anonymous' which stars Egyptian actor Ali Azab, produced by MO4 Network.

He's sent to a rehab center that bans all TV and computers to help in recovery, alongside other people addicted to Netflix series, and their plans to figure out a way to watch new episodes of their favorite shows no matter the cost.

Other actors present include Fathy Algamy and Osama Abdlalah. The series can be watched on Netflix Middle East's Facebook page for anyone in the Egyptian region.
