Hombale Films Leaves Massive Hints of The Basic Premise of KGF: Chapter 3

Bengaluru, April 14 - Hombale Films, the studio behind one of the biggest blockbusters of the Indian cinema KGF: Chapter 2, has given a major hint for the film's third installment and in which timeline it will be set up. ## Hombale Films released a video celebrating the first anniversary of the Yash-fronted monster blockbuster. The video shared on social media features some of the biggest goosebumps moments from KGF: Chapter 2. At once, the video looked like the highlight of the film, but suddenly it gets interesting with a hint of 3rd film. ## At one point in the video, after Govinde Gowda, a peon at 24/News, urged Vijayendra Ingalagi (Prakash Raj) to preach only about incidents that were written in the book, the scenes from Rocky's death to finishing his enemies started getting reversed. ## We also know the KGF: Chapter 2 has left a time gap of 4 years (during which Rocky did many crimes in different countries) which many assumed to be the core plot of KGF: Chapter 3. Going by the video and the way the scenes were reversed, it is clear that the 3rd Chapter will be the prequel to Chapter 2. ## At the end of the video, the tagline "That promise will be kept", but "Was the promise kept?" leaves so many hints and confirms that there was so much in the story to explore which will be shown in the next film. It also means Yash will return as Rocky Bhai along with other characters and new ones. ## The makers recently revealed that KGF: Chapter 3 could start in 2025 and be released in 2026. Director Prashanth Neel is currently busy with Prabhas-fronted "Salaar", produced by Hombale Films. He will next direct Jr. NTR. Yash, on the other hand, is yet to announce his next film. ## The most powerful promise kept by the most powerful man 💥KGF 2 took us on an epic journey with unforgettable characters and action. A global celebration of cinema, breaking records, and winning hearts. Here's to another year of great storytelling! #KGFChapter2#Yash… pic.twitter.com/iykI7cLOZZ— Hombale Films (@hombalefilms) April 14, 2023 ## Stay tuned...

Marvel Studios 'Guardians of the Galaxy 3' Is Projected To Take $125+ Million Opening Domestically

Los Angeles, April 13 - Marvel Studios' next blockbuster Guardians of the Galaxy 3 hitting theaters in less than a month. The highly-anticipated flick marks the finale of filmmaker James Gunn's trilogy and it will be the last Marvel movie for Gunn who is now the co-head at DC Studio.## Ahead of the release, the early box office projection for the film has been revealed and there are not as big as fans would have thought. This might also be because the previous Marvel movies weren't up to the standard the studio has set over the years and has been the most successful in terms of box office earnings in the world.## According to Box Office Pro, GoTG3 is projected to take a $120 million - $155 million in its domestic (North America) opening weekend and the lifetime domestic gross is expected to finish between $288 million - $403 million. ## As of now, the movie is poised to open (if opens to a lower projection) below Guardians of the Galaxy 2 which took the opening of $146.5 million and finished its run at $389 million domestically. The first Guardians film banked $94.3 million domestically in its first weekend and $333.7 million by the end of its run. ## GoTG3 will be the second Marvel release in 2023 after Ant-Man 3 which opened to a solid $106 million over the three-day weekend but failed to build upon this opening and will finish below $220 million. If the movie opens to a higher projection ($155 million), it would mean the 4th biggest start for a Marvel title post the covid-19 pandemic. ## Stay tuned...
