Korea to Enjoy Early Release of Bong Joon-ho’s Robert Pattinson-Starring ‘Mickey 17’
South Korea is to enjoy an early release of Bong Joon-ho’s Robert Pattinson-starring ‘Mickey 17.’
South Korean cinema-goers will get a three-day jump on the rest of the world when the Bong Joon-ho-directed “ Mickey 17 ” releases in January 2025 in time for the Lunar New Year holidays. The film is adapted from Edward Ashton’s 2022 novel, described by publisher St. Martin Press as a high-concept cerebral thriller in the vein of “The Martian” and “Dark Matter.” Pattinson plays an “expendable” — a disposable employee on a human expedition sent to colonize an ice planet — who refuses to let his replacement clone take his place. ‘Mickey 17’ will surprise audiences with its original story and characters, unpredictable plot development and humor, as well as great production qualities.
