LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The art of performing action stunts in a movie is known to give actors a unique voice and presence as their characters. Hollywood's upcoming film 'Kandahar' is a prime example of an action-thriller that follows the story of a CIA operative, providing an opportunity for the lead actor to showcase their skills and leave a lasting impression. Directed by Ric Roman Waugh, who previously worked on films such as 'National Champions' and 'Angel Has Fallen', and written by Mitchell LaFortune, whose most recent project was 'Burn Run', 'Kandahar' promises to be an intense and exciting cinematic experience for action movie enthusiasts. 

The majority of 'Kandahar's filming began in Saudi Arabia on December 2, 2021. This made the movie the first high-profile American production to film in Jeddah and Al-Ula. The film stars some brilliant actors like Navid Negahban, Ali Fazal, and Olivia-Mai Barrett ('Penny on MARS')
