Robert Pattinson Takes Korea By Storm As He Joins Bong Joon Ho In Korea For First ‘Mickey 17’ Press Event

Bong Joon Ho and Robert Pattinson kicked off the long-awaited launch of Mickey 17 with the first official press event for the movie in the Korean capital of Seoul on Monday. Korean director Bong’s first feature since his 2019 Cannes Palme d’Or and quadruple Oscar winner Parasite, the sci-fi drama has been a long time coming, with the shoot having wrapped in December 2022. Recounting his experiences shooting the film, Pattinson said the set had a the feel of “giant Stars War” production and revealed that he and the rest of the cast – which features Naomi Ackie, Steven Yeun, Toni Collette and Mark Ruffalo – had been intrigued by Bong’s directing style in which he got his actors to deliver one or two lines at a time.
