Telugu's star producer Anil Sunkara is the producer for this upcoming thriller. It is reported that the makers initially considered Mohanlal to play the role of the military officer. But, as things did not go as planned, Mammootty came on board to play this significant role.

Mammootty seems to be pleased with the role and hence is excited to play the officer in 'Agent'.

Akhil Akkineni, on the other hand, has got a super hit response for his recently released 'Most Eligible Bachelor', which stars Pooja Hegde as his love interest. He seems to be buoyed by the blockbuster hit and is apparently working on his next, as he needs to prep up for intense action sequences for 'Agent'.
