The highly anticipated sequel to Nelson Dilipkumar’s blockbuster ‘Jailer’ (2023), titled ‘Jailer 2’, is currently in production and is expected to hit screens on June 12 next year.
While Superstar Rajinikanth is confirmed to reprise his role, unconfirmed reports and industry buzz suggest that actor Vijay Sethupathi may be joining the cast.
The rumor, which awaits official confirmation from the actor or the filmmakers, claims that Sethupathi was part of the recent Goa schedule.
If the casting materializes, it would mark the second collaboration between Sethupathi and Rajinikanth, following their successful dynamic in the 2019 film ‘Petta’, where Sethupathi played the antagonist Jithu.
Director Nelson is known for blending action with his signature style of black comedy, setting high expectations for the sequel.
