Through his acting career, Amr Saad showed unprecedented talent in playing the role of the widely admired hero who fights for the downtrodden, becoming a role model for his enclosed society. He landed his first leading role in Hena Maysara (2007), which highlights life in the shabby back streets of Cairo. Saad's spontaneous performance and his well-honed talent continued to impress audiences and earn him raves of critics for every subsequent role he played, portraying the well-cultured, the uptight Upper Egyptian, the middle-class man, and the sailor. His acting debut was in Youssef Chahine's The Other (1999). In the same year his acting talent showed itself in Yousry Nasrallah El Medina (The City). In 2006, he captured the audience attention to his performance in Khayana Mashroaa (Justified Betrayal) opposite Hany Salama, before he presented his ground-breaking role in Hena Maysara. Hena Maysara's huge success was followed by Khaled Yousef's Dokkan Shehata, which portrayed the crumbling of Egyptian ethics in today's society. In 2010, Amr starred in El-Kobar where he played the role of a policeman who is facing difficult choices while trying to fight corruption. This was followed by Aswar Al Amar which traces a love triangle involving a blind girl, where a furious conflict emerges between the rivals. He received the highest number of votes ranking at the first place as one of the most prominent stars in the past few years through the questionnaire run by Horreyati magazine in 2015 for his role in Regatta alongside Elham Shahin and Mahmoud Hemida. In director Magdy Ahmed Ali's new film Mawlana (2016), Amr plays the role of a well-known preacher who hosts a series of moral, ethical and religious debates through his popular TV show, which enjoys worldwide audience of millions of people. Best known for his clear-cut and sensible answers to questions posed by guests, he struggles because of the restrictions imposed by the state security. The details about Mawlana have been revealed within the 66th Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale). Since 2010, Amr Saad is always keen on appearing in TV dramas in Ramadan. He starred in Mamlaket El Jabal, Share' Abd El-aziz (2011-2014), Khorm Ebra (2012), the Arabic adaptation of the British TV series The Adventures of Sinbad, Younis Weld Faddah (2016) and most recently Wad' Amny [Security Situation] (2017).
