Teaser poster for director Bong Junho's new film ”Mickey 17” unveiled

Director Bong JUNHO's new film "Mickey 17," which is scheduled to be released in Korea before the rest of the world on January 28, 2025, will have a teaser trailer featuring the transformation of lead actor Robert Pattinson.
The movie "Mickey 17" is about Mickey 17, a "disposable human" (expendable) who is put into dangerous jobs and when he dies, a new one is created.
The film depicts the unpredictable events that occur when Mickey 18 is created while facing a crisis and people think he is dead.
The poster was released. Mickey, an Expendable who is cloned when he dies while preserving his physical information and memories, has a serial number from 1 to 16 behind his name.
Behind the "Mickey 17" in the middle, there is an image of Mickey with numbers from 1 to 16 on his shoulders.
The poster, which seems to announce a new path, makes us curious about the various deaths that "Mickey 17" will show and the moment when a new "Mickey" will be created.
Robert Pattinson's transformation, which has been collected in Hot Topic, is also attracting attention. Mickey 17, the person destined to take on the ultimate mission, shows a pure and innocent expression that seems to have come off somewhere.
Korean audiences who first saw the global version of the poster were also enthusiastic. "Why is Robert Pattinson staring straight ahead with an expression that says, 'I don't know anything?'
"The first poster for 'Mickey 17' (laughs). Why is Mickey acting like such an idiot? What is Mickey 17? I'm Mickey 18.
"But? It's like," says director Bong JUNHO, who has created Robert Pattinson as "Mickey 17," and the setting of The Expendables, where the protagonist dies and is duplicated, has generated positive reactions and expectations.
Although it is not visible in the teaser poster, the teaser also raises questions about Mickey 18, who will have a completely different personality from Mickey 17.
Breaking the rule of the Expendables, where characters are duplicated after death, Mickey 18 appears with a different personality, like a mutation, even though he was created from the same data. The changes and tension in the story are also expected.
Regardless of genre, era, or subject matter, director Bong JUNHO's new film "Mickey 17," which exceeds audience expectations with its unpredictable story, will be released worldwide from Korea on January 28, 2025.
It will be released in Japan on February 7, 2025.
