Warner Bros. Pictures’ official logline describes this film as “a groundbreaking cinematic experience” about “the unlikely hero, Mickey Barnes [who] has found himself in the extraordinary circumstance of working for an employer who demands the ultimate commitment to the job… to die, for a living.”

Bong Joon-ho’s next film is based on Edward Ashton’s novel Mickey7, about a disposable employee who’s entrusted with a task to colonize an ice planet of Niflheim. He can be regenerated after dying, and a new duplicate is created to replace him, with most of his memories intact.

In addition to Pattinson in the lead role, the supporting cast of this sci-fi black comedy includes Steven Yeun, Naomi Ackie, Toni Collette, Mark Ruffalo, and Holliday Grainger. It marks  Bong Joon-ho’s first film in five years since the smash hit Parasite, which won several Academy Awards, including best picture, best director, best original screenplay, and best international feature film.

After being hit with several delays, Mickey 17 will be released by Warner Bros. Pictures on January 31, 2025.
