War 2: YRF gets Captain America's action director Spiro Razatos for Hrithik Roshan and NTR Jr.

Yash Raj Films’ WAR 2 being directed by Ayan Mukerji is going to be a breath-taking action spectacle like never before. Producer Aditya Chopra is mounting this action entertainer on a budget that should give us the most spectacular action film of our times and he has now roped in Captain America & Fast and the Furious action director Spiro Razatos for a critical action sequence that will be shot soon!  

“Award-winning action director Spiro Razatos, who is known for his stunts in blockbuster action films like Captain America: Civil War, Captain America: The First Soldier, Fast X, F9-The Fast Saga, to name a few, will now design and execute an action sequence that will blow people’s minds. He has started working with Ayan closely and has very ambitious plans to give Indian audiences action set pieces that they have never seen before!” informs a trade source. 

“All films of the YRF Spy Universe has only delivered blockbusters and it has become a huge draw for audiences worldwide as seen in the box office results that this franchise has delivered over the years. Adi realises the sky-high expectations that every film from this spy universe currently has. So, he is taking measures to keep delivering bigger cinematic experiences with each film from this fabled franchise,” the source adds. 

Aditya Chopra has made YRF Spy Universe the biggest IP of Indian cinema by making it an unmissable & unmatched theatrical experience. The YRF spy universe kicked off with the Tiger franchise, starring Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif, beginning with “Ek Tha Tiger” (2012) and “Tiger Zinda Hai” (2017), and continued with “War” (2019), starring Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff.

Then came the all-time blockbuster, “Pathaan,” starring Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham. The last film from the spy universe was “Tiger 3” starring Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif & Emraan Hashmi. All films from this fabled franchise have been hits! 

Aditya Chopra started the interconnectivity of the YRF Spy Universe film’s storylines from Pathaan where he revealed that the antagonist Jim, played by John, was actually on the same team as Kabir, played by Hrithik Roshan from the War franchise, before he lost his way. In Pathaan, Adi also brought Tiger & Pathaan together for the first time on screen and it was revealed that they are best friends! Pathaan again made an appearance in Tiger 3 and Hrithik Roshan too made an appearance in an Easter egg that set up the premise of War 2. 

After War 2, Alia Bhatt's spy film with Sharvari is slated to go on floors.
