Article Summary

- The film's marketing, including a captivating first trailer, has fans eagerly awaiting its release.
While there are still a ton of excellent movies to look forward to in 2024, early 2025 is shaping up to be really good, with Mickey 17 getting released. This is the next film from director Bong Joon Ho, who might be one of the best directors working right now, and anything he makes is always interesting, even if the films sometimes don't entirely come together. This is based on a popular science fiction novel and features a wild performance by one of the most underutilized actors of the last decade, Robert Pattinson. So few directors seem to know what to do with Pattinson because he is, objectively, a beautiful man, but in reality, he's weird as hell. Bong might be one of those directors who has managed to figure out how to utilize everything awesome about Pattinson, and really, we were all on board the moment Director Bong said he called the movie Mickey 17 instead of Mickey7 simply because he wanted to kill the main character ten more times. We love it. We got the first trailer [FINALLY] not that long ago, and now we have the first poster, which also rules. So far, this movie is 2/2 on marketing and looks awesome, so is it January yet?
