From Westeros to Empuraan: Jerome Flynn’s New Battlefield
Jerome Flynn, the man who made us laugh, cheer, and occasionally question our morals as Bronn in Game of Thrones, is trading his sword for a new mission. In L2: Empuraan, Flynn plays Boris Oliver, a character shrouded in mystery but pivotal to the journey of Mohanlal’s enigmatic Khureshi Ab’raam.
Flynn’s casting isn’t just a cameo or a gimmick—it’s a statement. The makers of Empuraan are pulling out all the stops to create a cinematic experience that transcends borders.
And Flynn? He’s all in.
“Orchestrated Chaos”: Flynn’s Take on the Empuraan Experience
In a promotional video, Flynn described his time on set as “beautifully orchestrated chaos.” For a man who’s navigated the cutthroat world of Westeros, that’s saying something.
“It was like being back in the middle of a Delhi roundabout—chaotic, but everyone knew exactly what they were doing. The passion, the energy… it reminded me of why I fell in love with acting in the first place.”
Flynn also revealed that India holds a special place in his heart. Having spent years in the country during his late 20s and early 30s on spiritual retreats, he described working on Empuraan as “coming home.”
The Stakes Are Higher Than Ever
L2: Empuraan isn’t just a sequel—it’s a full-blown cinematic event. Directed by Prithviraj Sukumaran and written by Murali Gopy, the film promises to delve deeper into the murky past of Mohanlal’s character, Khureshi Ab’raam.
The first installment, Lucifer, left audiences with more questions than answers. Who is Khureshi Ab’raam? What’s his endgame? And now, with Boris Oliver in the mix, the stakes have never been higher.
A Cast That Commands Respect
The ensemble cast of Empuraan reads like a who’s who of Indian cinema:
- Mohanlal as Khureshi Ab’raam/Stephen Nedumpally
- Prithviraj Sukumaran as Zayed Masood
- Tovino Thomas as Jathin Ramdas
- Manju Warrier as Priyadarshini Ramdas
- Indrajith Sukumaran as Govardhan
And let’s not forget the international heavyweights:

This isn’t just a film—it’s a global collaboration.

With such talent at the helm, Empuraan is poised to be a visual and auditory spectacle.
