Article Summary
- The official trailer for Bong Joon Ho's Mickey 17, starring Robert Pattinson, has finally been released by Warner Bros.
- Set for release on January 31, 2025, Mickey 17 is an adaptation of Edward Ashton's novel Mickey7.
- The trailer offers a surprising tone and showcases the film's captivating and unique concept of dying for a living.
- With an impressive cast and Bong Joon Ho at the helm, Mickey 17 promises to be a standout cinematic experience.
Yes, and please, this trailer is here for all of you to see. If memory serves, this is the trailer we saw back in April during the CinemaCon presentation. We loved it then, and we love it now. Whatever tone you thought this movie would be, it probably isn't the tone you got when you watched this first trailer. The concept of Mickey 17 already sounds so interesting, and apparently, the book is similar in tone to the film, so that's good. Director and writer Bong Joo Ho is legitimately a genius and one of the best directors out there right now, so that's already one reason to have faith that this movie will be good. If you need other reasons, the rest of the cast is also fantastic, and we're getting a buckwild Robert Pattinson performance. It is criminal that Warner Bros. has kicked this movie to late January, and it will be such a shame if the film is as good as it looks because no one will remember it by the time awards season rolls around next year.
