Following the huge triumph of Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal, fans have been anticipating the film’s sequel. Although Animal Park is still some time away from its theatrical release, an AI-generated poster for Animal 2 featuring Ranbir Kapoor has recently emerged on social media platforms. In this widely shared poster, Kapoor appears fierce while standing inside a meat shop.
The actor grips a knife in his hand, staring directly at the camera with intensity. He is dressed in a white vest splattered with blood stains, adding to his menacing look. Make sure not to overlook the tattoos visible on Ranbir’s arms.
The text on the poster declares, Animal Park: Hunt or Be Hunted. A post shared by H A S A N (@artbyhaxan) Animal hit theaters in December 2023, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna in lead roles, and delves into a man’s toxic bond with his father. The movie portrays Vijay (played by Ranbir) as an anti-hero willing to go to extreme lengths to safeguard his father, even mowing down 200 individuals with a machine gun.
Yet, despite his drastic actions, he fails to earn the approval of his emotionally distant father (played by Anil Kapoor). While Animal became a massive box office success, many labeled it as toxic and misogynistic. The film grossed over Rs.
900 crores globally. A post shared by Red Sea Film Foundation (@redseafilm) Meanwhile, in December 2024, while speaking to Deadline at the Red Sea Film Festival, Kapoor provided a significant update on Animal Park. The actor disclosed that the team is actively developing the script for Animal 2, with plans to commence filming in 2027.
“We should start that film in 2027. It’s a bit away,” Ranbir stated, further elaborating, “He (Sandeep Reddy Vanga, director) just kind of flirted with what he wants to do with the movie. It wants to make it over three parts.
The second part is called Animal Park. We have been sharing ideas from the first film itself, and how we want to take this story forward. It is very exciting because now I get to play two characters – the antagonist and the protagonist.
It is an extremely exciting project with an extremely original director. I am very excited to be a part of it.” See Also: Ranbir Kapoor Says Sandeep Reddy Vanga Wants Animal To Be A Trilogy: ‘We Should Start That Film In.
