Mohit Suri, who directed the 2014 film, will helm the sequel as well.
In an interaction with Mumbai Mirror, Bhushan Kumar revealed, “It’s essentially villain versus villain. Both Adi and John are playing negative characters. We are going to push the bar further with Villain 2. I was an assistant on John’s first film and we have been trying to work with each other for a while. This script proved to be a great platform for the two of us to come together and I am excited about it. We start rolling in June.”
