As VIPS made their way into Maali nightclub in Kings Cross, they were showered with money by dancing girls adorned in gold, who looked like extras from Kylie Minogue’s Spinning Around video. 

The premiere of Last King of The Cross has been a long-awaited event for Ibrahim, who has been working on the series for years. 

The Last King of the Cross tells the story of Ibrahim’s rise to power in the Kings Cross nightclub scene during the 90s and early 2000s. 

The 10-part series will tell the story of brothers John and Sam Ibrahim, who are prominent figures in the Kings Cross nightclub district.

The series may also explore key events in John’s life, including surviving a near fatal stabbing and other attempts on his life.

John has also praised Lincoln’s performance saying it was ‘difficult to watch’ some scenes and added he portrayed him ‘extremely well’. 

The Lebanese-born entrepreneur migrated from Tripoli to Australia with his family as a young child before securing his first nightclub at age 19.

Speaking to Stellar this week, actor Younes, 31, said that he researched the nightclub owner and even visited his home to learn more about him before filming the series.

‘I’m not doing an imitation of him,’ he said of the biopic.

‘There’s an essence I wanted to capture, the loneliness of being an immigrant, of being successful, of paving a path that hadn’t been done before,’ he added.  

Lincoln explained he was invited to Ibrahim’s home for research so he could properly embody the role.

‘You can learn a lot about a person just by being in their space. He’s charismatic, he’s open, he respects that I know what I’m doing. And that’s all I need,’ he added.

John has been dating model Sarah Budge, whom he met after buying the Potts Point building where she operated a restaurant, since 2015.

The couple welcomed their first child together in August last year.

A friend of the couple confirmed Elvis’ birth to Daily Mail Australia in early September and it’s understood the baby arrived on August 31.

John has two other children from past relationships, including a grown-up son, Daniel, and a seven-year-old child whom he shares with his long-time friend.

The Last King of the Cross has a budget of $50million and will be streamed worldwide.
