After Saif Ali Khan and Sonakshi Sinha, now Ajay Devgn is all set to make his digital debut. Ever since theatres were put under lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the need for OTT platforms has only increased. Reportedly, one of the top OTT giants has signed Ajay for a Hindi remake of the TV show, Luther. The actor will be seen stepping into the shoes of Idris Elba.
Ajay has already signed the project and the makers are on the lookout for an actress to be paired opposite him. A source said to Pinkvilla, “The team wanted someone who will have a powerful screen presence and they are already in talks with Ileana D’Cruz for the same. This will also be Ileana’s first web series if she says yes to it. She has heard the idea and loved it. She also has a great working rapport with Ajay so, in all probabilities, she will sign on the dotted line soon.”
The two primary roles on the show are of Alice Morgan, portrayed by Ruth Wilson, and Luther’s wife, Zoe Luther, essayed by Indira Varma. Ileana’s role has not been confirmed yet. “Ileana’s team is currently discussing modalities. She’s most probably going to play Ajay’s wife in the series,” the source adds.
Ajay and Ileana have previously shared screen space in films like Baadshaho and Raid. Ileana is also playing the lead in Ajay’s next production venture, ‘The Big Bull’.
