Introducing award-winning actress, Christine Solomon

Author: Christina - Published 2010-09-23 22:26 - (5936 Reads)
This up-and-comer (born in Egypt and raised in Montreal) is quickly making a name for herself on the North American film and television scene, most recently being cast in the original movie ‘Fakers’. The gifted Egyptian-Canadian performer is already an established staple in the entertainment industry in Egypt, and is now showcasing her talent to the Western hemisphere.

‘Fakers’ is an original pay TV movie from the producers and director of ‘Last Casino’. This provocative story of teen counterfeiters stars Greyston Holt (Durham County) and Andrew Francis (L Word, X-Men Evolution) and will premiere on Movie Central and The Movie Network in spring 2010.

‘Fakers’ tells the shocking story of three ordinary teenagers from one of Canada’s most elite schools, who were the masterminds of a major counterfeiting operation under the noses of their teachers and parents, and shows how it all came crashing down. Christine plays an exotic dancer who plays a pivotal role in the operations takedown. ‘Fakers’ is a Cite Amerique production, with director Pierre Gill (Last Casino) at the helm, and written by Jesse McKeown (DaVinci’s Inquest, Robson Arms).
