As reported earlier, 'Oru Adaar Love' fame director Omar Lulu will be doing a full-fledged action film titled 'Powerstar' starring veteran action hero Babu Antony. It was recently the movie's lead star Babu Antony revealed that Hollywood actor Louis Mandylor will be part of the upcoming movie.

Now, the latest is that Louis himself has put out a personal message on his social media page about joining the Malayalam film. “I am really honoured and blessed to have you as my friend. He’s a very learned actor and has invited me to come onboard Power Star which will start at the end of the year. I am really excited to do the movie and thank you so much Babu for the faith and the opportunity. It has always been my dream to cross cultures, arts, acting and martial arts. I am really excited to get back to India,” he said.

Louis is known for My Fat Greek Wedding and its sequel, in which he played the main character’s brother. The actor who has played an important role in 'Rambo 5' is a friend of Babu Antony. Like actor Babu Antony, Louis also has martial arts knowledge.

The film, scripted by veteran screenwriter Dennis Joseph, is expected to be a change for Omar Lulu who up until now has been making youth-centric films. Produced by Ratheesh Anedath under his home banner, the film's first look poster featuring Babu Antony was released earlier and received a good response from the audience.

Touted to be a complete action entertainer, a major part of the film will be shot abroad. The film is expected to go on floors once things get back to normal after the novel coronavirus pandemic.
