25 Oct
Summary
- Sunny Deol is in talks to star as Lord Hanuman in a new film.
- The Hanuman film is a spin-off from the upcoming Ramayana franchise.
- Makers plan a connected cinematic universe with multiple spin-off films.
A spin-off film focusing on Lord Hanuman, potentially starring Sunny Deol, is reportedly in development. This project is an expansion of the 'Ramayana' franchise, with the first part, 'Ramayana: The Rise of a Legend', not yet released. The Hanuman film is planned to commence production after 'Ramayana: Part 2', directed by Nitesh Tiwari, which is slated for a Diwali 2028 release.
The creators aim to build a connected mythological universe where each film serves as a standalone story while being linked. The potential Hanuman movie is envisioned to leverage the character's scale and emotional depth. Beyond Hanuman, standalone films featuring characters like Surpanakha, Jatayu, Indrajit, and Angad are also being considered as part of this expansive franchise plan.
