Malayalam motion thriller Kattalan is creating buzz for its gritty motion and intense setting. While the film is already being discussed, a brand new update from the makers has shifted attention toward its deeper reference to the Marco universe. Directed by debutant Paul George, the film is about to supply audiences an interconnected narrative to Marco 2.
On the Mumbai premiere of the film, the team revealed that Kattalan won’t function as only a standalone motion film. As an alternative, it reportedly plays a vital role in expanding the larger storyline that connects to Marco and possibly even Marco 2.
A Mystery From Marco Likley To Proceed
Considered one of the interesting talking points across the upcoming film is its subtle link to Marco. While Marco hinted at an unresolved emotional thread towards its climax, Kattalan is designed to further expand that story and supply context to a bigger chain of events unfolding throughout the universe.
Viewers who remember the ending of the sooner film may recall that a baby is kidnapped in the ultimate sequence, but the rationale behind the incident was left unexplored. The kid is revealed to be Marco’s nephew. Kattalan is now expected to proceed that thread and supply more context behind the mystery.
The Film Also Teases Future Franchise Plans
In line with the makers, the ending of Kattalan also includes one other tease that connects to the long run of the Marco universe. This has already sparked speculation amongst fans about how the storyline could eventually lead into Marco 2. The concept of interconnected storytelling has added an additional layer of curiosity across the project beyond its motion sequences.
