A new poster of Shah Rukh Khan from his upcoming actioner, King was unveiled by him on Tuesday.

Directed by Siddharth Anand, the film also stars Deepika Padukone, Rani Mukerji, Anil Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan, Jaideep Ahlawat, Arshad Warsi and Suhana Khan in pivotal roles.

In the new poster, Shah Rukh sports a rugged look with grey hair as a fire burns behind him. He is seen holding a gun in his hand while a rose rests between his lips.

Sharing the poster, Shah Rukh invoked a famous line from the title song of his 1999 action-comedy Baadshah as he wrote in caption, “Aaj phir yaad aaya…Qaatil nahi… Aashiq hoon… (I got reminded again today, I am not a killer but a lover)”. The film is slated for release in 2026.
