Mumbai: Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming film 'Pathaan' has a huge Hollywood star Tom Cruise connect, according to the film's director Siddharth Anand.
Siddharth said: "When one sets out to make the spectacle action film of India with one of the all time biggest heroes of our country, Shah Rukh Khan, you need to have a champion team that is unified in the vision." "Thankfully we got an A-team that came together to push the visual envelope with Pathaan and I was delighted to have someone like Casey O' Neill, who has extensively worked with Tom Cruise, to be by our side."
Emmy award-nominated Casey, regarded as one of the best action directors in Hollywood, is the brain behind Tom Cruise's death-defying stunts in films like Jack Reacher, Mission Impossible series films, 'Top Gun : Maverick' and has also worked with Marvel Studios and Steven Spielberg to name a few. About Casey, Siddharth adds: "He brings in a wealth of experience and he immediately bought into the idea of creating edge of the seat action for Pathaan that could match what he's done back home in Hollywood."
