Jailer 2 is the upcoming sequel starring Rajinikanth in the lead role and directed by Nelson Dilipkumar. The action-comedy film will see the superstar reprise his role as “Tiger” Muthuvel Pandian, with Mohanlal and Shiva Rajkumar also returning to reprise their characters from the previous installment.
The film will also feature Mithun Chakraborty and Vidya Balan in key roles, while SJ Suryah is expected to play a negative role. Additionally, actress Nora Fatehi is likely to appear in a special dance number.
Reportedly, Shah Rukh Khan is expected to shoot for Jailer 2 for seven to eight days and may join the sets in March 2026. Since this portion is said to be the final schedule of the film, it is expected to wrap up the sequel’s shoot. However, this remains an unconfirmed report, as the makers have not made any official announcement.
Rajinikanth’s work front
Following Jailer 2, Rajinikanth will appear in the lead role in the tentatively titled Thalaivar173. The film is set to be directed by Cibi Chakravarthy, best known for Don, and is expected to be a light-hearted action entertainer.
Initially, the project was supposed to be directed by Sundar C. However, due to prior commitments, the filmmaker opted out of the film.
Moreover, Rajinikanth will also appear alongside Kamal Haasan in an upcoming film tentatively titled KHxRK Reunion. The film will be directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, with Anirudh Ravichander composing the music.
