We previously reported that filmmaker Lokesh Kanagaraj will produce actor Raghava Lawrence’s upcoming film titled Benz. Lokesh has also written the story of the film, which will be directed by Bakkiyaraj Kannan of Remo and Sulthan fame.

It’s now known that Benz is a part of the Lokesh Cinematic Universe which already features films like Kaithi, Vikram and Leo. On the occasion of Lawrence’s birthday, Lokesh released a video featuring him. In the short clip, he welcomed the dance choreographer turned actor and director to the LCU.

The video also featured animated clips of a helmet-wearing person on a bike, a hammer smashing what looks like drugs and Lawrence in a chef’s attire with a gun.

The update follows the film’s announcement which was made earlier this year in April. Details regarding the cast, crew and plot remain unknown at the moment.

Benz will be produced by Lokesh in association with Sudhan Sundaram and Jagadish Palanisamy under their G Squad, The Route and Passion Studios production banners.

Apart from producing, Lokesh will also present the film which has a post-release streaming deal with Netflix. Notably, last year, Lokesh’s production banner G Squad earlier presented Vijay Kumar’s Fight Club.

On the director front, Lokesh is currently helming Rajinikanth’s much-anticipated next, Coolie. Lawrence, on the other hand, has films like Kaala Bhairava, Hunter and Adhigaaram. He is also playing a prominent role in director Innasi Pandiyan’s Bullet which will star the actor’s younger brother Elviin in the lead. Lawrence is also speculated to be a part of Coolie.
