Variety
EKKL Entertainment has acquired the worldwide distribution rights for "Daniel: The Fiery Furnace," an epic Biblical film starring Mena Massoud and Elijah Alexander. The film is set to premiere in American theaters in September. Massoud is a well-known actor recognized for his role in the film "Aladdin," while Alexander is known for his performance in the series "The Chosen."
Directed by Canadian filmmakers Matthew and Daniel Kooman, the production comes from the team behind "She Has a Name." "Daniel: The Fiery Furnace" is designed as an origin story about Daniel from the Old Testament. This film, which explores religious and historical themes, will be presented to cinema audiences with a strong cast, led by Massoud.
The production appears to be crafted to reflect the social and religious context of the era. EKKL Entertainment's investment in such religious and historical content can be seen as a strategic move, considering the growing demand for films of this genre.
Following its release in September, there is great anticipation regarding the film's success and how it will be received by audiences. Based on the previous works of the Kooman brothers, the production is expected to offer a high-quality cinematic experience.
