CHENNAI: Director Jalmari Helander, best known for having directed the explosive survival thriller 'Sisu', says it's always a pleasure to work with actor Jorma Tommila because he can create emotions, including rage and grief, without almost any dialogue!

Nearly a decade after redefining the genre of modern action thrillers with 'Sisu', filmmaker Jalmari Helander and Jorma Tommila are now all set to return with a sequel titled 'Sisu: Road to Revenge'.

Talking about working with Jorma in the sequel, director Jalmari Helander says Tommila brings relentless, almost machine-like intensity and energy to the screen.

Says the director, “It’s always a pleasure to work with Jorma because he is uniquely capable of creating emotions, including rage and grief, with almost no dialogue. We experience what Aatami is feeling and thinking just by his face and gestures.”
