Bilal is an upcoming 3D animated action-adventure film produced by Barajoun Entertainment Animation. The movie shows the life of Bilal ibn Rabah. It is the first feature-length animated film from the Dubai-based Barajoun, along with being the first Middle Eastern-funded and -produced animated film.
No release date has been announced yet but the movie's producers said that Bilal is expected to be released in theaters worldwide towards the end of 2015.
"Jamal says that he expects to see an early 2016 release, noting that he would rather avoid the end of 2015 due to the small matter of potentially clashing with Star Wars: The Force Awakens. He does intriguingly hint at a possible regional premiere for the movie in December, however, if any remaining film festivals happen to be reading."
Synopsis
Bilal (Andre Robinson), a bright eyed carefree boy ignited with fanciful imagination and a dream only a 7 years old can conjure. His ability to speak against injustice, a rare gift. On a day as similar as any, this dream turns into a nightmare when the village he lives in is ransacked, orphaning him and his younger sister, Ghufaira (Cynthia McWilliams). Thrown in a world where greed and injustice rule all, Bilal and Ghufaira find themselves bound to the chaotic wills and wants of the most powerful man in the City, Umayya (Ian McShane). Dreams of freedom and the warrior he fantasized he would become, are kept deep in Bilal's yearning heart. Bilal will soon learn he must choose his own fate, and find the courage to raise his voice. Bilal (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje) will challenge everything.Actors

Solomon is a wise prophet selected as the crown prince by his father King David (Dawud in Islamic texts) when he was 9. Following Prophet David's death, Solomon succeeds to the crown and God appoints him as a prophet. Requesting from God the establishment of a divine kingdom, Solomon takes the wind under his command and jinns and demons under his control. Inviting rulers of the neighbouring lands to the monotheistic religion, Prophet Solomon continues his divine mission in as much as Balqis, the Queen of Sheba professes monotheism. At the end, while leaning on his cane, Solomon bids farewell to the world, and the jinns and demons get out of reign and return to their own world.

Joseph is the youngest of Jacob's eleven sons and a favorite of his father's; thus inciting the brothers' jealousy when Joseph grows conceited and arrogant when constantly pampered by his parents. When he receives a beautiful coat from his father, his brothers fear that he may become the clan's leader upon their father's death. One evening, Joseph dreams that the sheep his brothers are tending are attacked by wolves. Later, a wolf pack attacks the flock and Joseph is nearly killed until Jacob saves him. Jacob becomes furious that Joseph was abandoned by his brothers, and amazed that Joseph's dream came true. Judah, the eldest of the brothers and their leader, merely dismisses this. The next night, Joseph dreams that his brothers each carry sheaves of wheat that bow to Joseph's gigantic sheaf, and that he is a brilliant star surrounded by ten smaller stars and the sun and the moon; and Jacob predicts that Joseph shall supersede his brothers. The latter retreat to a cave and determine to do away with Joseph. Joseph overhears this, and the brothers tear his cloak and hurl him into a pit until nightfall. When withdrawn, Joseph is sold to desert slave traders, and thence into Egypt, while his brothers tell their father that he was killed by wolves.
