Rama is an undercover cop sent into prison on a mission. Although, only part of it takes place in a prison because

[Show spoiler]they do escape

Some of Rama's adversaries in Berandal include The Assassin, The Baseball Bat Guy, Hammer Girl and everyone's favourite Mad Dog will return to play a "machete-wielding henchman"

So is this a prequel? Cause you all remember how the dog got put down right?

From the sound of it there, it looks like the same actor in a different role. Either that or he comes back from the grave (halogen light still in place of throat)

Yeah, as Foggy said, it will be the same actor in a different role.
I'm sure he'll look different so people don't notice and be like, "hey, that's Mad Dog!"

Also, its not a prequel but is set shortly after The Raid from what I gather

No different than Pat Roach playing the bald German Mechanic (and giant sherpa) in Raiders of the Lost Ark, the Head Thuggee Guard in Temple of Doom, and a Gestapo agent in Last Crusade. (The part of Dovchenko in Crystal Skull clearly would have been his as well, but he died in 2004. )

Gareth Evans:

We’re still shooting it right now. We’re about a month and a half away from finishing the production of it. It’s got the same kind of action beats in terms of the style of the action, but our approach this time is to go way more cinematic with it. We’re expanding the universe out. We’re taking the story out of that little claustrophobic setting and putting it out into the streets and into the high end gangsters in Jakarta. It’s a lot bigger in scope. So fingers crossed people will kind of come along for the ride again. We should be finished with post by the end of this year and then maybe early next year we can have the release.

I can't wait for this one! As has been said already, I hope they keep the simplicity.

[Show spoiler]Wait? He's Back?!

That guy had some of the best fighting scenes in The Raid, I am glad they somehow brought him back.
