Jailer 2 announcement on cards?
Even though Sun Pictures has not revealed any details of its next collaboration with Rajinikanth, the grapevine suggests that the banner is indeed hinting at the Jailer 2 announcement. As reported earlier, director Nelson Dilipkumar and his team shot a special announcement video and the announcement poster of the Jailer sequel, featuring the legendary superstar, in December 2024. Even though the announcement was expected to be out on the leading man’s birthday, it was later pushed due to creative reasons.
As per the latest updates, Nelson Dilipkumar and the team are planning to kickstart the filming of Jailer 2, soon after Rajinikanth wraps up the filming of his next outing, Coolie. The superstar will reprise his much-loved character Muthuvel Panidan IPS from Jailer (currently available for streaming on Sun NXT and OTT Play Premium), in the film, while Yogi Babu, Ramya Krishnan, and others might return to play their respective roles from the original. Anirudh Ravichander will compose the songs and the original score for the film, which is expected to get a 2026 release.
