Netflix sets Jan 26 release for 'Animal'

Ranbir Kapoor-starrer Animal will start streaming on Netflix from January 26, the platform announced on Thursday.

Directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, the film also stars Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Rashmika Mandanna, and Triptii Dimri.


Animal, which hit the screens on December 1, went on to become one of the highest-earning Hindi films of 2023 despite being criticised for its poor portrayal of women, misogyny, and graphic violence.

Ranbir Kapoor said he is looking forward to the digital premiere of his film on Netflix.

"We are absolutely overjoyed by the response 'Animal' received in theatres and now I am glad that audiences worldwide will get a chance to watch it in the comfort of their homes. The opportunity to showcase our work globally is truly special," the actor said in a statement.

In addition to Hindi, Animal will also be available in Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada, on Netflix.

In a press release, the streamer described the film as an action drama exploring "the intricacies of modern-day relationships, focusing on the dynamics between a father and son", played by Anil Kapoor and Ranbir Kapoor.

Animal is produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Murad Khetani, and Pranay Reddy Vanga.

'Resident Evil' trailer repositions the franchise around Austin Abrams’ civilian lead

Highlights

  • Austin Abrams leads the reboot as an ordinary courier caught in chaos
  • Zach Cregger directs a new story with no legacy characters
  • Franchise worth over £950 million globally takes a more grounded approach

An unlikely lead at the centre of horror

The new trailer for Resident Evil shifts the focus away from seasoned fighters and places Austin Abrams at the heart of the outbreak. Playing a courier who stumbles into a crisis in Raccoon City, Abrams represents a different kind of protagonist for the franchise.

There are no familiar heroes this time. Instead, the story follows someone with no experience of survival or combat, caught in a situation that rapidly spirals beyond control. The approach changes the tone, turning the narrative into something more immediate and less predictable.
