Get ready for an exhilarating experience as Robert Pattinson defies death in the first trailer for Bong Joon Ho’s eagerly awaited sci-fi film, Mickey 17. The Oscar-winning director of Parasite and Snowpiercer returns with a new, mind-bending story, adapted from Edward Ashton’s novel Mickey 7.
Pattinson takes on the role of Mickey Barnes, an “expendable” worker on a mission to colonize an icy planet. His perilous job involves frequent death and cloning, with each new version of himself replacing the previous one. The trailer offers a glimpse into Mickey’s darkly comedic battle for survival as he grapples with his own mortality and the absurdity of his existence.
The film features a stellar cast including Steven Yeun, Naomi Ackie, Toni Collette, and Mark Ruffalo. Mickey 17 promises to deliver a visually spectacular and thought-provoking exploration of identity, humanity, and the extremes we go to survive.
Mickey 17 is slated for release on January 31, 2025. Fans of Bong Joon Ho’s previous films and Robert Pattinson’s compelling performances should mark their calendars for this thrilling sci-fi adventure.
