The makers of Coolie have yet to announce the additional cast members for the film. However, it is speculated that actors Sathyaraj and Shobana have been roped in to play pivotal roles in Coolie. Girish Gangadharan is reuniting with director Lokesh as the director of photography. Philomin Raj handles the editing.
A release date for Coolie is yet to be announced. It is expected that the film will hit theatres in 2025.
