Actress Amy Jackson has been roped in as the female lead for the film.
The Tamil film industry is abuzz with news about Superstar Rajinikanth’s upcoming film with director Shankar. Enthiran 2, a 3D film, is being produced by Lyca and is said to have a budget of Rs 150 crore. As of now, director Shankar is keeping all cards close to his chest but it looks like the film's script has come out very well.
There is talk that the role of the villain in this movie is as important as Rajinikanth’s. Hollywood’s Arnold Schwarzenegger is reportedly in talks to play the villain. This role was first offered to Kamal Haasan but since he didn’t take it up, Shankar decided to approach Schwarzenegger. But industry sources say that because Schwarzenegger’s fee is very high it’s likely it might not work out.
The team is said to be looking for alternatives in Bollywood and names of actors like John Abraham are being floated around. Director Shankar is said to be looking for an actor with tremendous screen presence to play the villain in Enthiran 2.
Actress Amy Jackson has been confirmed for the project. A source told dna, “Director Shankar was keen on a Bollywood actress for Enthiran 2. They had approached Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif for the film. Unfortunately, he needed bulk dates. Both the actresses have numerous other projects on hand and it didn’t work out.”
Music maestro AR Rahman has been signed on and VFX guru Srinivas Mohan has also been roped in. Editor Anthony is working on this project while Nirav Shah will helm the camera. Apparently, Shankar wanted a Hollywood company to do all the special effects but he had budget constraints.
Superstar Rajinikanth had reportedly said “Idhu verai level” about Enthiran 2, meaning that he feels the film is at another level altogether. The film is set to roll in January 2016. It's likely to take two-and-a-half years to complete.
