Patriot

Patriot (2026) is a high-octane spy thriller that brings together the powerhouses of Malayalam cinema—Mammootty and Mohanlal—for a rare and massive collaboration. Released on May 1, 2026, the film has been hailed for its international-standard action sequences and a tight screenplay that keeps viewers guessing. Starring alongside the legends are Fahadh Faasil and Nayanthara, making it one of the biggest ensemble casts in recent history. The film follows a retired intelligence officer who is pulled back into a global conspiracy that threatens national security. With its digital rights secured by ZEE5 for a record sum, Patriot is not just a theatrical blockbuster but a major milestone for the Malayalam industry's global reach. Everything we know suggests that the film will have a long theatrical run before its highly anticipated OTT premiere in late May or early June.
