Dhanush has the The Gray Man press in splits with his modest humour

Actor Dhanush may have starred in an English language movie which was an international production (The Extraordinary Journey of The Fakir) before, but his first Hollywood brush comes in the form of The Gray Man [Early Reviews Here] starring Chris Evans, Ryan Gosling, Ana De Armas, Rege Jean Page, Julia Butters and directed by Anthony and Joe Russo of Avengers fame. 

 

The movie is all set to premiere on Netflix on July 22, 2022 and ahead of the same Dhanush had travelled to the US to promote the film. The Tamil actor seems to have charmed the American press present at the screening with his humour and videos of the same have been trending all day on the internet.

When asked how he got involved on The Gray Man, Dhanush who plays Avik San very modestly said, "I don't know how I ended up on this film" to a roar of laughter. He then added,

"The casting agency in India, one day they told me you know 'we have a Hollywood project'. I was like ok. (they said) 'It's a big film'. I said ok, which film what film..And then when they told me I was like huh (making a mildly surprised face)..(they told me) it can get bigger than that. I was very thrilled, very excited. ofcourse I don't say much in this film. But I really really was super thrilled and I was looking for an opportunity to explore, learn more..This was an amazing opportunity for me. Hope I've delivered."

The Gray Man's female lead Ana De Armas also shared in this same Q&A session, the kind of stunt choreography they had and how the actors had to perform the stunts extremely slow to make it look fast. She shared that she would terrify Dhanush even with her slowed down version of the action scenes and that every time they rehearsed, Dhanush had to remind her to slow down even more. Dhanush said in agreement "Ana's really fast", evoking laughter from the audience once again.
