Jayasurya and Vinayakan’s Titans will receive a worldwide theatrical release on October 1, 2026. Directed by Prince Joy, the film also features Baby Jean, Nihal and Indrans in prominent roles.
Midhun Manuel Thomas, Irshad M. Hassan and Pradeep C. S. are associated with the production under the banners Nerambokku and Manual Movie Makers. Avanir Tech and Babu Ettan Films are also involved as production partners.
The project brings Jayasurya together with Vinayakan in what promises to be an engaging Malayalam theatrical experience. More details about the characters and storyline are expected to be announced closer to the release.
Mayan – Chapter 1 Begins Its Production Journey
Jayasurya will headline the ambitious fantasy film Mayan – Chapter 1, directed by Jithin K. Jose. The filmmaker previously directed Kalankaval.
Produced by Rajeev Govindan under the Magic Moon Productions banner, the movie was scheduled to begin filming on August 12. Its screenplay has been jointly written by Rafi and Jithin K. Jose.
Mayan – Chapter 1 is the third production from Magic Moon Productions, following Ordinary and Anarkali. The title suggests that the movie could be the beginning of a larger fantasy narrative, although further information about its story and characters remains under wraps.
The film adds another fantasy-based project to Jayasurya’s forthcoming lineup and is expected to present the actor in an ambitious cinematic setting.
Kathanar – The Wild Sorcerer Nears Completion
Kathanar – The Wild Sorcerer is one of the most anticipated projects in Jayasurya’s career. Inspired by the legendary stories of Kadamattathu Kathanar, the film explores the life of a Kerala priest believed to have possessed supernatural abilities.
The movie is directed by Rojin Thomas, who received widespread acclaim for the National Award-winning family drama #Home. Gokulam Gopalan is producing the project under the Sree Gokulam Movies banner.
Currently in the final stages of post-production, Kathanar has been developed using advanced filmmaking technology and an international production scale. The project is planned as a two-part cinematic saga and is expected to be released in more than 30 languages.
The combination of Kerala folklore, supernatural themes and large-scale visual storytelling makes Kathanar – The Wild Sorcerer a significant addition to Indian fantasy cinema.
Operation Tral Explores Courage and Counter-Terror Operations
Jayasurya also leads Operation Tral, an intense counter-terror thriller inspired by a major security operation. The story follows an investigation launched after a devastating convoy attack in Kashmir.
Directed by Ratheesh Vega, the film focuses on courage, sacrifice and the pursuit of justice. Its official teaser introduces a tense environment shaped by danger, loss and a high-stakes investigation.
The ensemble cast includes Ritika Singh, Murali Sharma, Vinay Rai, Vikram Kochhar, Kavya Shetty, Siddique, Saikumar, Anson Paul, Manju Pillai, Yash Gera, Hansika Bharat Jangid, Akshay Radhakrishnan, Sirajudheen Nazar, Neethu Krishna, Bashid Basheer and Joel Jo George.
Joby George Thadathil produces the film under the Goodwill Entertainments banner. Ratheesh Vega also handles the music and original score, while Najose serves as cinematographer and Shafeeque V. B. as editor.
A Diverse Lineup for Jayasurya
Jayasurya’s upcoming projects highlight his willingness to explore different genres and characters. While Titans brings him together with Vinayakan for a theatrical entertainer, Mayan – Chapter 1 takes him into a new fantasy world.
Kathanar – The Wild Sorcerer draws from Kerala’s rich folklore and has been designed as an international-scale cinematic saga. Operation Tral, meanwhile, places the actor at the centre of a serious investigation and counter-terror narrative.
With four contrasting projects on the way, Jayasurya’s forthcoming lineup promises action, fantasy, folklore and intense drama for Malayalam cinema audiences.
