Years before he perfected his craft with &#8220;RRR,&#8221; Rajamouli had already distilled his talents for myth-making and awe with this saga about a man named Mahendra Baahubali (played by Indian star and powerhouse Prabhas)\u00a0raised in total anonymity, until he learns of his true lineage as a prince destined for greatness.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Both Telugu-language blockbusters would go on to \u2014 without exaggeration \u2014 <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.slashfilm.com\/914526\/pop-culture-imports-rrr-and-more-awesome-indian-movies-to-stream-now\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:reshape the face of the Indian filmmaking industry as a whole;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">reshape the face of the Indian filmmaking industry as a whole<\/a>, but even that success may pale in comparison to what&#8217;s next for the &#8220;Baahubali&#8221; franchise. Word recently broke of a spin-off film based on the popular movies, as\u00a0Rajamouli took it upon himself to re-edit and re-release both halves of &#8220;Baahubali&#8221; into one gargantuan-sized reimagining appropriately titled &#8220;Baahubali:\u00a0The Epic.&#8221; (Even cooler, he debuted a teaser for the spin-off during the intermissions for screenings of &#8220;The Epic.&#8221;) This continuation will take the narrative out of live-action and into the realm of animation with a new film titled &#8220;The Eternal War&#8221; &#8230; and it looks every bit as stunning and game-changing as the prior installments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Billed as the first of another two-part adventure, &#8220;Baahubali: The Eternal War \u2014 Part 1&#8221; genuinely needs to be seen to be believed. Luckily, studio\u00a0Arka MediaWorks released a new trailer that puts all the breathtaking visuals and actions on display.

That&#8217;s the sound of every movie fan within the range of this trailer collectively picking up their jaws from off the ground. Like Netflix&#8217;s &#8220;Love, Death &amp; Robots&#8221; series or Sony&#8217;s &#8220;Spider-Verse&#8221; films, &#8220;Baahubali: The Eternal War&#8221; seems destined to revolutionize the medium of animation. Coupled with the unbridled imagination and grandiose sense of flair that can only be found in Indian filmmaking, well, it&#8217;s not exactly a leap to say that this film could end up making a similar &#8220;RRR&#8221;-sized impact on Western moviegoers at large.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Produced by S.S. Rajamouli, &#8220;Baahubali: The Eternal War&#8221; comes from director\u00a0Ishan Shukla (best known for writing and directing a season 2 episode of the animated anthology series &#8220;Star Wars:\u00a0Visions&#8221; titled &#8220;The Bandits of\u00a0Golak&#8221;) and written by\u00a0Scott Mosier. If that latter name sounds familiar, that&#8217;s because you likely know him as the producer behind several\u00a0Kevin Smith films and the co-director of 2018&#8217;s animated &#8220;The Grinch.&#8221; Of course, Prabhas returns to reprise his original role as Baahubali, along with Ramya Krishna as Sivagami.\u00a0Although he won&#8217;t be returning to the director&#8217;s chair this time around, Rajamouli had this to say about the prospects of this upcoming spin-off film and its planned second half in an official statement:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;When Ishan brought us the idea of expanding the &#8216;Baahubali&#8217; universe into a stylized animated epic, it clicked instantly. It feels like a seamless, organic extension of the world we built, one that will thrill long\u2011time fans and invite new audiences in. I am excited to bring these two films to the big screen.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">&#8220;The Eternal War&#8221; is set to be released sometime in 2027, and we can&#8217;t wait.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">If you&#8217;re looking for the easiest way to keep up with all the major movie and TV news, why not <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/subscribe.slashfilm.com\/newsletter-syndicated\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:sign up to our free newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">sign up to our free newsletter<\/a>?
