Last year, Dhanush had issued a statement on Twitter revealing he will star in ‘The Gray Man’, stating that he was elated to announce that he will be joining the team of Netflix’s ‘The Gray Man’ starring Ryan Gosling and Chris Evans, directed by The Russo Brothers (Avengers, Captain America: Winter Soldier). “Looking forward to being a part of this wonderful action experience,” he had tweeted at that time.

The ‘Gray Man’, which is touted to be one of Netflix’s biggest budget movies, is based on the 2009 bestselling novel by Mark Greaney. The book introduced the character Gray Man, a freelance assassin and former CIA operative named Court Gentry. The action thriller is centred around Gentry (Gosling), who is hunted across the globe by Lloyd Hansen (Evans), a former colleague of Gentry’s at the CIA. Media sources said that Dhanush is most likely playing the head of one of the teams that is after Court Gentry.

When Dhanush’s ‘Jagame Thandhiram’ was set to release earlier this year, the Russo brothers had tweeted in supprt, ” Super da thambi! Excited to be working with Dhanush and good luck with Jagame Thandhiram.”

While Dhanush had completed most of his portions in the film earlier this year, he seems to be back on the sets to wrap up some patch work. He is scheduled to work on his brother Selvaraghavan’s upcoming Tamil film ‘Naane Varuven’ next. ‘Naane Varuven’ will mark Dhanush’s reunion with director Selvaraghavan after a gap of more than a decade. Indhuja Ravichandran of ‘Bigil’ fame has been signed up as the female lead.
