We had previously reported that Vikram will be teaming up with director Ajay Gnanamuthu for his next, which is being referred to as Vikram 58. This has now been confirmed after a poster of the film, revealing Vikram in different get-ups, was released on social media. The backdrop of the poster has a comic strip, maps, photographs and scientific formula. The Vikram 58 logo is designed to resemble a lizard's skin, possibly that of a chameleon to denote the different faces Vikram's character might have to use in the film. 

Said to be an action thriller, the yet-to-be-titled film will go on floors in August and will be hitting the screens in April, next year. Lalit Kumar of Seven Screen Studio and Viacom 18 Studios are co-producing this venture. A source from the unit says it will be a pan-Indian project, with a cast and crew drawn from different film industries. Currently, in the pre-production stage, the film will be made in Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi.
