Mickey 17

Following the international smash, Oscar-conquering Parasite, director Bong Joon-Ho returns with a sci-fi story as ambitious and wildly imaginative as his Snowpiercer, Okja or The Host. Robert Pattinson stars as Mickey, who has taken on a galactic mission as an ‘expendable’: a human who is regenerated following their death in risky conditions, the majority of their memories intact. Contrary to the plan, one of Mickey’s iterations survives, putting him face to face with his identical successor in deep space.

A welcome return from director Bong after six years away after his stunning Parasite, he has used the cachet to deliver a highly ambitious, richly detailed, star-studded, wild ride. Debuting at the Berlin Film Festival, Joon-ho brings together an international cast of Naomi Ackie, Steven Yuen, Toni Collette, Holliday Grainger and Mark Ruffalo. Get ready for countdown sequence and watch out for your doppelgänger in one of the year’s most anticipated films.
