From starring in major Hollywood action movies to now appearing in a spy action thriller, Kandahar, the actor has come a long way. The actor revealed his first poster for his upcoming film Kandahar on Instagram. In the poster, Ali can be seen sporting a pretty badass look in front of a dirt bike in the middle of the desert. He will be seen alongside one of Hollywood’s biggest action stars, Gerard Butler.
Sharing the poster, he wrote: “A Racing Pulse hits theaters in North America on May 26. My movie is ready to be released. KANDAHAR @OpenRoadFilms @thunderroadpics #KANDAHAR #GERARDBUTLER @NAVIDNEGABHAN @iamnaaz _Some serious bikers got down here in the deserts. Stay tuned.!!
Ali Fazal is the first Indian actor to have a lead titular role in a Hollywood film with the 2017 film Victoria and Abdul with legendary actress Dame Judi Dench.
Kandahar revolves around the story of Tom Harris, an undercover CIA agent, trapped deep in the hostile territory of Afghanistan. After his mission is exposed, he must fight his way out, along with his Afghan translator, to an extraction point in Kandahar, while avoiding elite enemy forces and foreign spies tasked with hunting them down. Kandahar is directed by Ric Roman Rough, who has directed movies like Angel has Fallen and Greenland. The film will also feature Navid Negabhan, Travis Fimmel and ELlnaaz Norouzi, among others. Kandahar is scheduled to open on May 26 in the US and was filmed extensively in the AI Ula region of Saudi Arabia.
Meanwhile, Ali Fazal will be seen in the upcoming season 3 of the web series Mirzapur, which will stream on the Amazon Prime Video OTT platform. Apart from that, he also has The Underbug, Girls will be Girls, Metro In Dino and another Hollywood movie Afghan Dreamers.
