Bong Joon Ho Confirms He Got Final Cut On Mickey 17: ‘I’m Very Happy About It’


The Parasite and Snowpiercer director speaks to Empire about getting final cut on his Robert Pattinson-starring sci-fi.

Director Bong settled on Mickey 17, his Robert Pattinson-starring adaptation of Edward Ashton’s sci-fi novel Mickey7, heading into major Hollywood studio territory with Warner Bros. Between Snowpiercer and Okja, it’s clear that when Director Bong moves into English-language mode, he doesn’t make any attempt to temper down his wonderfully wild instincts. Read Empire ’s full Mickey 17 feature – speaking to Bong Joon Ho, Robert Pattinson, Steven Yeun and Naomi Ackie about their oddball sci-fi odyssey – in the December 2024 issue, on sale Thursday 24 October.
