Priyanka Chopra is eagerly awaiting the release of her upcoming action-comedy, "Heads of State." The film, co-starring John Cena and Idris Elba, is slated to premiere on July 2, 2025. However, ahead of its global debut, Priyanka's family in India enjoyed an exclusive screening, leaving the actress with a touch of "FOMO" (fear of missing out).
Her mother, Madhu Chopra, brother Siddharth Chopra, and sister-in-law Neelam Upadhyaya, orchestrated a heartwarming surprise by organizing a private viewing of "Heads of State" in their home country. The family members posed joyfully in front of the movie poster, visibly excited to witness Priyanka's performance on screen.
Priyanka shared the touching moment on her Instagram, captioning it, "When your family hosts a screening back home. FOMO. Miss you all."
According to Money Control, Priyanka Chopra spoke about her experience working alongside John Cena and Idris Elba. She described the collaboration as "fantastic," emphasizing that she never felt excluded or uncomfortable on set.
The "Heads of State" project originated when Cena and Elba, following their collaboration on "Suicide Squad," expressed interest in working together again. Producer Peter Safran recognized the potential and brought the idea to fruition. Priyanka cherished being part of the project. Despite being the sole female member of a predominantly male team, she consistently felt included and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
Early reviews of "Heads of State," such as the one published by Etimes, commend the film for achieving a harmonious balance between action and comedy. The review notes, "As an action-comedy, the film strikes a fine balance between both genres—neither overshadowing the other. Amid the adrenaline-pumping sequences, there’s plenty of room for laughter." The comedic dynamic between Elba and Cena, characterized by their sharp banter and impeccable timing, is highlighted as a key contributor to the film's appeal.
The film also offers a diverse array of action sequences, ranging from intense confrontations aboard Air Force One and high-speed train chases to a comical encounter with Polish punk teenagers. The review aptly summarizes, "From serious fights aboard Air Force One to one on a speeding train and those on the roads to a silly skirmish with Polish punk teenagers, every action sequence is thrilling."
