A LEADING actor in a movie depicting violent Lebanese gangs set for release in cinemas next month has been arrested and jailed in real life.

Ali Haidar, 19, is languishing in a Sydney cell at Silverwater on a serious assault charge but the makers of The Combination are hoping to have him out for the film's premiere next month.

The film is tipped to perform well at the box office with the 200 people who have watched private screenings reacting well.

It captures sickening but realistic violence between warring gangs and is being promoted as a chance to "come and see the real Australia".
