Contrary to reports, Jacqueline is part of Kick sequel

After the huge success of Kick, filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala recently announced its next instalment, Kick 2. While Salman Khan was an obvious choice for the sequel considering the fact that the audience had really loved him in his devilish character in the first part, actress Jacqueline Fernandez's presence in it was not confirmed. Several media outlets reported that the actress has been replaced by Amy Jackson who will shortly be seen in 2.0 with Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar.

However, Sajid has rubbished all reports. Talking about where all these unconfirmed reports generated from, he said, “At an event, Salman was handing over the Best Director Award to me and he had said in jest, ‘Kick 2 is ready now, and Jacqueline, you are not there!’ He just joked and news spread that Jackie would be replaced in the film.”


When the filmmaker was asked about the actress' presence in the sequel, this is what he said, “Once I finish penning the script, I’ll be completely sure. But at present, she’s there in what I’m writing. But it’s too early to talk about it.”

Kick 2 is scheduled to release on Christmas 2019.

'Doctor Who' gets a 2026 Christmas lifeline as BBC ends Disney+ partnership

Highlights:

  • A new Doctor Who Christmas special is confirmed for 2026, written by Russell T Davies.
  • The BBC’s global partnership with Disney+ has ended after two seasons.
  • The BBC says it’s “fully committed” and will announce full series plans later.
  • Spin-off ‘The War Between the Land and the Sea’ and a CBeebies animation are still on the way.

Looks like the Doctor will be making another Christmas stop. The BBC says Doctor Who will return in 2026 with a festive special, a quiet way of telling fans the TARDIS isn’t going anywhere, even as its deal with Disney+ ends.

The announcement ends months of speculation about the sci-fi institution, which hasn't been on screen since Ncuti Gatwa’s final episode in May, which ended with the surprise appearance of Billie Piper. The special will be written by showrunner Russell T Davies, but the big news is the end of the Disney+ deal, which had handled the show’s distribution outside the UK since 2022.
