Producer Siddharth Anand has reportedly roped in Abhishek Bachchan to play the antagonist in 'King'. The filmmaker promises to bring Abhishek Bachchan in a never-seen-before avatar, and if sources are to be trusted, fans can expect a massive face-off between Abhishek's character and Shah Rukh Khan, who plays a mafia.

`Abhishek is an actor whose full potential has yet to be fully realized. He has the ability to astonish audiences when given complex roles. King presents him in an out-and-out negative role for the first time in such a large-scale commercial movie, and he is sure to make a significant impact with his performance. The Jr. Bachchan was surprised when he was offered this role but accepted it immediately, intrigued by the depth of his character. It's a special role, and Siddharth Anand has grand plans to present Abhishek in a manner audiences have never seen before,` a source close to the development told Peeping Moon.

While 'King' marks Siddharth Anand's second collaboration with SRK after 'Pathaan', the film will be the producer-director's first full-fledged collaboration with Abhishek. 'King', which will also see SRK and Suhana Khan for the first time together, is currently in pre-production. The makers are targeting a late 2025 or early 2026 release. Siddharth is co-producing this film under his Marflix banner along with SRK's Red Chillies Entertainment.
