Bong Joon Ho’s “next groundbreaking cinematic experience” (as promised by Warner Bros. Discovery) centers on Pattinson’s titular character Mickey Barnes, who finds himself in the extraordinary situation of working for an employer who demands the utmost commitment to the job… dying, for livelihood.

Mark Ruffalo, Steven Yeun, Toni Collette and Naomi Ackie also star.

“Parasite” writer and director Bong wrote the screenplay based on the novel “Mickey 7” by Edward Ashton. Bong also produces with Dooho Choi. “Mickey 17” will screen at the 75th Berlin International Film Festival and opens in South Korea on February 28 before premiering in the United States

Mickey 17 is produced by Dede Gardner and Jeremy Kleiner and executive produced by Brad Pitt, Jesse Ehrman, Peter Dodd and Marianne Jenkins.

Bong reunites with his “Okja” cinematographer Darius Khondji, “Snowpiercer” costume designer Catherine George and “Parasite” editor Yang Jinmo. The music is by Jung Jaeil (“Parasite,” “Squid Game”), with Dan Glass (“Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore,” “Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw”) as visual effects supervisor. The production designer is Fiona Crombie (“The Favourite,” “Cruella”).

“Mickey 17” is a feature film from Warner Bros. Pictures and a production of Plan B Entertainment, Offscreen and A Kate Street Picture Company.

Pattinson recently told Vanity Fair that “Mickey 17” is coming to theaters “at a time of excitement for cinema,” following the lull in “ambitious” films amid COVID and the strikes.

“It’s strange because in the last few years in the film industry, starting with COVID and then the strikes, it’s been constantly said that cinema is dying. And that’s quite convincing. I was literally almost turned off,” Pattinson said of acting. “It actually started to get a little worrying. And if you look at the last few months, there’s been a flood of very ambitious films. I have a feeling the things being nominated for the Oscars this year are going to be really interesting, and it seems like there’s suddenly a new group of directors that audiences are excited about too. (…) Hopefully ‘Mickey’ will be released at a time when there is enthusiasm for cinema.”

“Mickey 17” hits theaters March 7th. Check out the trailer below.
