Australian actor and producer Cate Blanchett, an Academy Award winner, has returned to Egypt after more than 30 years. Known around the world for her powerful performances, few people know that Blanchett&rsquo;s first on-screen appearance actually took place in Egypt.
In 1990, Blanchett had a small role in the Egyptian film &ldquo;Kaboria,&rdquo; starring Ahmed Zaki and Raghda. She appeared briefly as a blonde cheerleader in just a few scenes when she was only 18 years old, long before her rise to Hollywood fame.
Now, three decades later, Blanchett is back in Egypt to attend the El Gouna Film Festival, where she was honored as Guest of Honor. She presented her upcoming movie Father Mother Sister Brother, set to be released in 2025, and received the festival&rsquo;s new El Gouna Champion of Humanity Award.
As one of the most respected actors in the world, her visit celebrates both her early connection to Egyptian cinema and her achievements throughout her global career.
