Ahmad Sufian Mazilan
Ahmad Sufian Mazilan’s filmography is honestly a wild ride, especially if you’re into Malaysian animation and a bit of local nostalgia. The guy really made a splash with “Ejen Ali: The Movie” back in 2019—people couldn’t stop talking about that one. It’s this slick, high-energy animated flick about a young boy, Ali, who kinda stumbles his way into becoming a spy (yeah, a kid spy—like Jimmy Neutron meets MI6, but with way cooler gadgets and a distinctly Malaysian flavor). The action scenes? Super punchy. The humor? Actually funny, not that cringey try-hard stuff you sometimes get in kids’ movies.
Then you’ve got “Anak Merdeka” from 2017—totally different vibe. This one’s less about flashy tech and more about heart, history, and what it means to be Malaysian. It dives into the journey of independence, weaving in stories that hit you right in the feels. Not as loud as “Ejen Ali,” but honestly, sometimes you just want a movie that makes you think a little.
And apparently, Mazilan isn’t slowing down because “Ejen Ali the Movie 2” is slated for 2025. If the buzz is anything to go by, it’s gonna be bigger, bolder, and probably packed with more insane action sequences. Fans are already speculating about new characters and plot twists. If you liked the first one, chances are this sequel’s gonna blow your socks off. The anticipation’s real—people are counting down the days.
