Venkat Prabhu took to his official X handle on Thursday to share photos of actor Vijay from the USC Institute of Creative Technologies (USC ICT). The photos show the actor undergoing a full-body 3D VFX scan at the institute for his 68th film helmed by Venkat Prabhu.
“Welcome to the future!!” Venkat Prabhu captioned the tweet. USC ICT is known for working on films like Avatar and Fast and Furious. Thalapathy 68 is reportedly the first Indian film to get its VFX work done at the institute.
Backed by AGS Entertainment, Thalapathy 68 is all set to have music composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja. Thalapathy 68 marks the first collaboration between Vijay and Venkat Prabhu.
In a previous conversation with CE, Venkat Prabhu said, “I am more than elated to have gotten this opportunity. Words cannot describe how happy I am. I have been trying to do a film with Vijay ever since the release of Mankatha (2011). I am glad that it has finally materialised.”
The film is slated for release in 2024.
