Netflix will on Thursday debut its first Egyptian television series "Paranormal," a major step in the streaming service's Middle Eastern strategy.
The series is based on Egyptian novelist, Ahmed Khaled Tawfik's books about a doctor whose lifelong scientific convictions are suddenly called into question. His critically acclaimed novels in Arabic have sold more than 15 million copies.
"Our plan is: invest in Arab creators, in Arab production, in Arab content. We have announced four projects, plus 'Paranormal'," said Ahmed Sharkawi, director of Arabic and African original series at Netflix.
