Action star Vidyut Jammwal to set foot in Hollywood; signs with Wonder Street

Vidyut Jammwal, who is considered to be one of the best action stars working in Indian cinema today, is set to make his crossover to Hollywood. The 40-year-old actor, whose filmography includes such successful films as Force (2011), Commando (2013), and Khuda Hafiz (2020), has signed with the premier U.S. management and production firm Wonder Street.

Apart from starring in a series of box-office hits, Jammwal also recently forayed into film production with the launch of his own banner, Action Hero Films. He is now targeting leaving his footprints in Hollywood as well. He will be working with Wonder Street partners Christine Holder and Mark Holder, who will rep him in all areas.


The Wonder Street partners said, “The time has come for Jammwal to reach global audiences.” The actor told a publication that he was excited for this journey.
