The Boys actress Erin Moriarty, who plays Starlight in the hit Prime Video show, starred as Indian actor Dhanush’s love interest in a 2018 adventure comedy before shooting to fame with the gory sci-fi superhero series that premiered in 2019.
Titled The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir, the Ken Scott-directed English film was mostly shot in Europe. It follows Dhanush’s Ajatashatru Lavash Patel, a small-time magician from Mumbai, who embarks on a journey to foreign nations to find his estranged father. During the trip, he meets Moriarty’s Marie and falls in love with her.
The film, which also released in Tamil, Telugu and Malayalam languages, hit Indian theatres on June 21, 2019 following its France release on May 30, 2018. It won awards at the Norwegian International Film Festival and Barcelona Sant-Jordi International Festival, according to IMDb.
The Extraordinary Journey of the Fakir, however, isn’t available for streaming on OTT platforms in India.
Dhanush is currently awaiting the release of Raayan, the trailer for which was dropped on Tuesday. The action drama is set to hit theatres on July 26.
Moriarty, on the other hand, recently featured in Season 4 of The Boys. The finale episode of the season dropped on Prime Video on Thursday.
