Vijay Deverakonda's fans will have to wait a little longer for 'Kingdom'. The much-anticipated action drama, which was earlier set to release on July 4, has been postponed once again.
This marks the third delay for the film, which was initially scheduled to hit theatres on March 30, then shifted to May 30, and finally to July 4.
Producer S Naga Vamsi shared the news on Twitter, where he wrote, 'Em post chesina, Kingdom sweet curses mathram vasthune untayi ani telusu (Whenever I post anything, I know I get sweet curses about the film's delay),' he wrote with a hint of humour. 'But trust me, our team is working around the clock to bring you a Massive Big Screen Experience… One thing I can promise you - The ADRENALINE RUSH this film delivers is unreal.
'
'A winner written all over it'
Despite the postponement, Vamsi remained confident about Kingdom's potential. 'And you all know me…..When I say something nenu entho namithe kani chepanu endukante adhi koncham miss ayina mee creativity antha chupistharu naa meeda… but After watching the film cheptunnaaa… I can strongly tell you… #Kingdom has WINNER written all over it.'

Calling it a full-on commercial entertainer, Vamsi promised a gripping mix of action and drama delivered in director Gowtam Tinnanuri's signature style.
A release date teaser and song announcement are expected to be revealed soon.
Gowtam Tinnanuri at the helm
Vamsi also opened up about his faith in director Gowtam Tinnanuri, known for Jersey. 'It is a film where I approved the director before the script,' he revealed. 'I knew I wanted to work with Gowtam because he's a brilliant storyteller with a strong sense of style.'
The project also boasts a stellar team behind the scenes.
'Almost everyone on the crew has won a National Award,' Vamsi added. "It's a full meals commercial entertainer packed with loads of drama in Gowtam's style!! Twaralo adiripoye Release Date Teaser and song announcement tho kaluddam!!!," Vamsi concluded.
Stellar cast
'Kingdom' stars Vijay Deverakonda in the lead, alongside Bhagyashri Borse, Satyadev, and Koushik Mahata. While a new release date is awaited, expectations remain sky-high — and the team is determined to deliver on the promise.

Karan Johar Said He Doesn't Want To Work With Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise: 'Don't Want Them In My Movies'

Karan Johar said he has 'no interest' in working with Hollywood actors or making an English language film. Karan Johar is among the biggest filmmakers and producers in India. As such, he has no interest in waiting in Hollywood offices to get his scripts read. In a 2012 conversation with TBIP, Karan Johar said he has no intention of working with Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise or Will Smith. He said that, unlike Hollywood, Indian cinema has a vast audience even in the domestic sense. Karan Johar said, 'We have such a large domestic audience that we have never needed to reach out. I have no interest in whether my film releases anywhere else in the world but India. The diaspora, for sure… But I don't want to work with Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise and Will Smith. I don't want them in my movies." Karan added, 'I don't want to make an English language film. I have no interest in going down and sitting in an office in LA and waiting for an actor to hear my script. I have no interest. If they give me an Oscar in my lifetime, I'll accept it as gladly as I'd accept a National Award from the President. It'd probably mean more to me." The filmmaker said that while he watches the Oscars and enjoys the black-tie event on his television, he will not spend years of his life trying to win it. 'I love the movies I make. I love the world I live in. I love the fact that Hindi cinema is a part of my life. I feel blessed that I'm in this profession," Karan mentioned. He wished that Bollywood never needed to reach out to 'another country" to support its creative endeavours. Although Karan Johar mentioned that he didn't want Will Smith in his films, it is interesting that years later, the actor made a cameo in Student of the Year 2. The film was produced by Karan Johar's Dharma Productions. Meanwhile, Karan Johar recently critiqued Brad Pitt's F1. Karan Johar called F1 a fun watch despite being predictable. He wrote on Instagram, 'Familiar Tropes, predictable beats, one-liners you see coming a mile away and yet. SO MUCH FUN! You can't stop yourself from reaching the edge of your seat or gasping out loud (sic). Brad Pitt seems to have approached the role with a self-reflecting Zen mode movie star swag! So effective and landed every beat!" He said that he found the climax a bit weak, and ended by saying, 'Mildly underwhelmed with the climactic beat BUT don't miss this adrenaline race and rush (sic)."

His longtime association with Ryan Murphy's show, where he played the complicated Dr. Christian Troy, made him a household name. At the same time, his turn as Cole Turner in Charmed, playing Alyssa Milano's on-screen love interest, turned him into a fan favourite. He got his start in Aussie soaps like The Power, the Passion and Home and Away, before landing his first film role in the 1992 comedy Wet and Wild Summer, opposite Elliott Gould and Christopher Atkins. Post-Nip/Tuck, McMahon took on FBI: Most Wanted, where he played Special Agent Jess LaCroix, mentoring a younger task force. He joined the series in 2020 and stayed on until 2022. After exiting the show, he told Deadline, 'I'm extremely proud of the work we have done together and put the development of this show, and my character Jess, at the top of my professional experience list. I wish the show, and its cast and crew the greatest success in the future. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to play Jess. He is a good man.' McMahon's most recent appearance was in Netflix, The Residence, which was cancelled after just one season. 'What shocking news,' FBI: Most Wanted producer Dick Wolf said in a statement to Variety. 'All of us at Wolf Entertainment are deeply saddened by Julian's passing, and our condolences go out to his entire family.' Julian McMahon was previously married to Australian singer Dannii Minogue. He later got married to Baywatch star Brooke Burns, with whom he also shared a 25-year-old daughter, Elizabeth. He married Kelly Paniagua in 2014.
