Priyanka Chopra Jonas to star with Russell Crowe in Bluefly

The Story in Brief

Priyanka Chopra Jonas will star opposite Oscar-winning actor Russell Crowe in Bluefly, a sci-fi action thriller directed by Nimród Antal. The film follows a grieving United Nations translator drawn into a covert mission to recover a mysterious aircraft in the Congo. David Frigerio, William Eubank and Carlyle Eubank have written the screenplay. Highland Film Group will handle worldwide rights and begin international sales at the Toronto International Film Festival, Bollywood Hungama reports. Filming is expected to start later this year on Australia's Gold Coast. Priyanka also stars in SS Rajamouli's Varanasi, due in theatres on April 7, 2027.

The Indian Opinion

The “global superstar” promotion around Priyanka’s latest casting is louder than the facts available so far. Bluefly has a strong pairing and an experienced director, but it has neither a release date nor evidence that it will become a hit. Claims that Crowe’s presence guarantees quality are just as lazy. The useful markers are production starting on schedule, a completed film and the response when its first footage arrives.
