Robert Pattinson Faces Death and Resurrection in Bong Joon Ho's Sci-Fi Epic 'Mickey 17', Set for January 2024 Release

The anticipation for ‘Mickey 17’ has reached a fever pitch following the release of its first trailer on September 17. Warner Brothers shared the trailer on their official Instagram handle.

In this upcoming sci-fi film directed by the acclaimed Bong Joon Ho, known for his Oscar-winning work on ‘Parasite’, Robert Pattinson takes centre stage, navigating a surreal existence filled with death and resurrection.

The trailer opens with a striking line, “It was nice knowing ya. Have a nice death. See ya tomorrow.”

This sets the tone for Pattinson’s character, who finds himself in a loop of living, dying, and coming back to life, offering a fresh twist on the sci-fi genre.

Adapted from Edward Ashton’s 2022 novel ‘Mickey 7’, the film boasts an impressive ensemble cast that includes Steven Yeun, Naomi Ackie, Toni Collette, and Mark Ruffalo. Originally slated for a March 29, 2024 release, ‘Mickey 17’ will now hit theatres on January 31, much to the delight of fans. Pattinson previously teased the project during his surprise appearance at CinemaCon in April, expressing his admiration for Bong Joon Ho.

“I’ve been the biggest fan of Bong for many, many years; he’s my hero,” Pattinson shared in the interview reported by People magazine. (ANI)
