Actor Sacha Baron Cohen is notoriously secretive about his projects, as he has become known for creating characters that are thrust on to people in the real world. While it is unknown what the provocateur is currently working on, it appears he could be bringing back one of his most well-known disguises. According to reports, Cohen was recently spotted filming as a scene in his iconic Borat costume.

The character of Borat was originated by Sacha Baron Cohen for his television series, ‘Da Ali G Show’ and later portrayed in the hit 2006 movie, ‘Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan.’ Now it appears the character could be making a return, though it is unknown in what capacity. A fan recently captured footage of Cohen dressed in character driving a van, with a film crew shooting him in a vehicle just ahead.

While not dressed in the “mankini” outfit popularized in the movie, the thick moustache and tan suit worn by Cohen is undeniably Borat. Some have speculated Cohen could be bringing back the iconic character for a second season of his hit HBO series, ‘Who Is America?’ Whatever it’s for, fans can expect a return of Borat sometime in the near future.
