2.0's release is finally confirmed to release on November 29 this year, and we do hope there is no change in the release date after that. The much hyped, sci-fi thriller has been eagerly expected for many reasons. The biggest being that it is considered the most expensive movie ever made in Indian cinema, with special effects said to be on par with that of Hollywood. Then there is that fact that it is a Rajinikanth movie and Akshay Kumar is making his Tamil debut here as the primary antagonist. Akshay Kumar's evil, crow-like look has also evinced quite a lot of intrigue among fans.

With so much happening around the movie, fans are eagerly waiting for the teaser to arrive. Certain reports claim that the first teaser of the film will come out on August 15. As per industry watcher Ramesh Bala, the teaser will also be attached to Akshay Kumar's Independence Day release, Gold, which makes a lot of sense.

All we have seen of 2.0, the sequel to the 2010 hit Enthiran, are posters and glimpses of the film in the behind-the-scenes making footage. So we are looking forward to our first teaser of the film, and see if the two-year-long wait is really worth it.

2.0 is directed by S Shankar, who also made the first film, as well as several blockbusters like Gentleman, Rakshakan, Anniyan, Indian, I etc. Rajinikanth will have a dual role in the movie of that of the meek but brilliant scientist, Vaseegaran and his rogue android creation, Chitti. Amy Jackson is the female lead, while the movie also stars Sudhanshu Pandey, Adil Hussain and Malayalam actor Kalabhavan Shajohn. AR Rahman scores the music for the film.
