Did Varun Dhawan just confirm Raj & DK's MCU project
Amazon Prime Video has finally unveiled the release date for its much-anticipated show, Citadel: Honey Bunny, set for November 7. The show, starring Varun Dhawan and Samantha Ruth Prabhu, is the Indian branch of the Citadel franchise and mirrors events from Priyanka Chopra Jonas's show. While the event was wholesome, Dhawan enhanced it by hinting at a possible connection between show creators Raj & DK and the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
'Should ask when they're going to announce their big gig...'
While on stage, Dhawan teased, "We should ask Raj & DK when they are going to announce their big gig. But that is for a later announcement, I guess." This statement has sparked speculation about Raj & DK's potential involvement in an undisclosed MCU project. In 2023, reports suggested that Raj & DK would collaborate on a Marvel superhero film with Sita Menon. If these reports are accurate, Dhawan's hint could be pointing to this project.
Meanwhile, 'Citadel: Honey Bunny' teaser was unveiled at this event!
The teaser for Citadel: Honey Bunny was revealed at the event, promising a thrilling ride filled with action and heroism, and a dash of 1990s charm. The show features Dhawan and Prabhu in their spy avatars along with talented actors like Kay Kay Menon. Notably, the Citadel franchise is expanding with non-English spin-offs. The first season of the English series was released in 2023. Citadel: Honey Bunny (Hindi) and Diana (Italian) were announced as the new additions.
