Mexican director Patricia Riggen
desires to collaborate with Indian actors
After winning name and fame for her work on the critically acclaimed TV series Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan, Mexican director Patricia Riggen expressed her desire to collaborate with Indian actors for a possible sequel to her latest film G20, a tense political action thriller.
Riggen, who had helmed the high-octane first season of Jack Ryan with John Krasinski in the lead, now brings that action to G20, with Viola Davis taking the spotlight as US President Danielle Sutton,faced with a terrorist situation at a G20 summit.
The film also features Antony Starr, famed for his role as Homelander in the TV series The Boys.
But for Riggen, having a female action star as the lead was just as much of a priority, due to which she had insisted that the lead character be a strong-willed female President.
Viola Davis plays the President of the United States which is a really wonderful thing to imagine and she’s also a really good action figure… What surprised her more is not how amazing she is as an actor because she has Oscars and Emmys, but how good she is at the fights,” she revealed in her recent interview.
When asked about a possible sequel, she was much keen on filming one set in India, should the film do well here. If G20: India were to happen, she eagerly said she would love to cast Shah Rukh Khan for it. If it happens, this would be the beloved Indian superstar’s first role in Hollywood.
Adding Indian Film Industry has the best actors, the most amazing, good-looking, versatile actors… so she would get Shah Rukh Khan for sure.
Meanwhile, G20 streams worldwide on Amazon Prime on April 10.
