Yes, Shetty is gearing up to produce his first web-series under the banner of Rohit Shetty Picturez. He last helmed the Ranveer Singh and Sara Ali Khan starrer Simmba (2018), which emerged as one of the highest grossing films of 2018.


Confirming the same, Shetty said, “I am producing one web series. It’s on a big scale, that’s why it’s taking time. We have been writing it for nearly two years now. But by next year, January we will start shooting. It’s an action thriller.”

Talking about his other projects, the hit filmmaker is presently busy preparing for his next directorial venture titled Sooryavanshi, It features superstar Akshay Kumar in the lead role. Both are working together for the first time in their career.

'My Brilliant Career' review: Netflix makes a 125-year-old feminist story feel dangerously modern

Highlights

  • Netflix’s six-part series adapts Miles Franklin’s 1901 feminist novel
  • Phillipa Northeast stars as Sybylla Melvyn, a young writer determined to avoid the life chosen for her
  • The adaptation combines period drama with modern music, frank sexuality and stories of racism and social inequality

An erotic poem, a scandalised grandmother and a young woman with little interest in marriage make for an unexpectedly lively opening to My Brilliant Career. Netflix’s six-part adaptation of Miles Franklin’s 1901 novel wastes little time establishing that this will not be a restrained period drama.

Adapted by Liz Doran, the series follows Sybylla Melvyn, a fiercely independent young woman who dreams of becoming a writer. It follows Gillian Armstrong’s acclaimed 1979 film starring Judy Davis and Sam Neill, but brings a distinctly contemporary energy to Franklin’s story.
