There’s A Movie About Anwar Ibrahim In The Making & We Can’t Wait To See It!

Back in 2018, Malaysians rejoiced upon the release of the local political drama film, Rise: Ini Kalilah, which depicted the days leading up to one of the most historic elections in Malaysia, the 14th General Elections (GE14).

And now, it appears we might be getting another local political drama movie!

Former Member of Parliament (and current Pakatan Harapan candidate) for Kangar, Noor Amin bin Ahmad took to his Facebook page to share how he was approached about the now on-going production of ‘Jalan Masih Panjang’, a movie about Pakatan Harapan leader Anwar Ibrahim.

He wrote, “Since the plan to produce a film about Anwar Ibrahim – starring Farid Kamil (who will play Anwar Ibrahim in the movie) and Acha Septriasa – has been spread, I can also share a little contribution from the research about Anwar Ibrahim when I met the director of this film.”

It turns out that people have been wanting to make a movie about Anwar Ibrahim for years!

“Actually, after 2018, several parties have met me about this material – at the suggestion of DS Anwar’s own office. Some wanted to make a documentary and some wanted to make a movie,” he added.

Also involved was Dato’ Zul Aznam, former Perlis State Police Chief and former Aide-De-Camp (ADC) for Anwar Ibrahim.

“I hope that everything goes smoothly and impressively. Stay tuned for ‘Jalan Masih Panjang’.”
