Dhanush to star in Avengers Doomsday? Russo brothers in talks to work with Tamil star again!

Dhanush has undoubtedly been one of the most sought-after actors in Indian cinema, gaining immense recognition worldwide for his versatility. The actor, who made a successful Hollywood debut in the Russo brothers' film The Gray Man, is now reportedly in talks for a key role in Avengers: Doomsday. 

According to media sources, the Russo brothers are considering to cast Dhanush in the highly anticipated Avengers: Doomsday. While this news has created excitement among Indian fans, eagerly anticipating their favorite Tamil hero's potential appearance in a Marvel film, an official confirmation is still awaited. If it’s a cameo, the news may remain under wraps until the release, but sources suggest he could be approached for a significant role. 

Dhanush is not the first Indian actor associated with the Marvel universe. Earlier, Farhan Akhtar appeared in Ms. Marvel as Waleed. However, no Indian actor has ever been in an Avengers film, so if the rumors are true, it could be a game-changer for the Kollywood star.
