The excitement surrounding L2 Empuraan, the sequel to Lucifer, has reached new heights! Ever since the release of its mysterious dragon poster, fans have been speculating whether the mystery man is Mammootty, Fahadh Faasil, or Basil Joseph. Now, director Prithviraj Sukumaran has finally addressed the rumors—here’s what he had to say!
What Did Prithviraj Say About the Mystery Man?
In a recent interview with Galatta India, Prithviraj was asked directly if the person in the dragon poster was Mammootty, Fahadh Faasil, or Basil Joseph. His response? A cheeky:
🗣 “I could tell you, but then I will have to kill you.”
However, when pressed further, he firmly stated:
❌ “No.” The mystery man is none of the three actors!
But here’s the twist—Prithviraj did reach out to big names globally for L2 Empuraan. However, he ultimately cast actors best suited for the roles, rather than going after big names just for the hype.
Mammootty NOT in L2 Empuraan—But What About Part 3?
One of the biggest rumors was Mammootty’s involvement in the film. Prithviraj categorically denied it, saying:
🗣 “Mammootty sir is not there in this part of the franchise.”
However, this raises a big question—if L2 Empuraan is part of a trilogy, could Mammootty appear in Part 3?
Basil Joseph Clears the Air 🚨
Meanwhile, actor-director Basil Joseph also responded to speculation about whether he was the man in the dragon poster. He denied it, stating:
🗣 “If I was in the film, why build so much hype instead of just revealing my face?”
Who IS the Mystery Man? Fans Must Wait Until March 27! ⏳
With Mammootty, Fahadh Faasil, and Basil Joseph ruled out, the identity of the man in the dragon poster remains a mystery.
We’ll have to wait until March 27, 2025, when L2 Empuraan finally hits theaters, to unravel the secret behind the enigmatic Khureshi-Ab’raam’s next chapter!
