“This gentleman has taken over Twitter in the last 5 months. 10 million mentions in like over 4 months. This is the guy you may not know but should know, Dhanush,” The Russo Brothers said.

On Monday, Dhanush spoke at the post-screening press conference in Los Angeles about how he ended up being part of the project. When asked about how he landed the opportunity, Dhanush said, “I don’t know how I ended up in this film.” Dhanush’s response got everyone in the room burst out into laughter, including his co-stars.

He further added, “I was thrilled and very excited. Of course, I don’t get to say much in the film. I was super thrilled and was looking for an opportunity to learn and explore.”

On Tuesday, The Russo Brothers shared a glimpse of an action sequence featuring Dhanush, Ryan Gosling and Ana De Armas. Releasing the clip on their Twitter page, the Russo Brothers said it is to introduce Dhanush’s character from the movie. “Ladies and gentlemen, we give you…@dhanushkraja (sic),” they captioned the clip on Twitter.
