Warner Bros has finally revealed the first full trailer for the sci-fi movie Mickey 17, the next new Bong Joon-ho movie since he directed the Oscar-winning Parasite back in 2019. This has taken a long time to get a final 2025 release date confirmed – it was originally set for early 2024, then WB held it back for a year and now it’s ready for release in January 2025. No other festivals or premieres anywhere. Robert Pattinson stars as Mickey Barnes, an “Expendable”: a disposable employee on a human expedition sent to colonize the ice world Niflheim. There can’t be more than two of them at the same time, but after he goes missing he comes back to discover another. Based on the acclaimed sci-fi novel by Edward Ashton. The cast features Naomi Ackie, Steven Yeun, Toni Collette, Mark Ruffalo, Steve Park, Patsy Ferran, and Angus Imrie. Well this looks absolutely INCREDIBLE. Are you kidding?! Even better than I was hoping. This is the kind of bold and crazy sci-fi filmmaking we’re in need of. Cannot wait.
