Robert Pattinson’s Mickey 17 is a highly-anticipated film. The film marks the first film that director Bong Joon-ho’s first feature film after Parasite. Pattinson has so far been going from one big project after another, attracting fans to his talent like no other. Joon-ho’s film was one that had kept fans on their toes for quite some time now, considering how much they were waiting for it.
After the update of its removal from Warner Bros. Discovery’s release schedule, there was a streak of unhappy fans who had no other option but to silently sit and wait for more. However, it would seem as if another update has further given reason to increase their worries, one that could also potentially delay Mickey 17 even more.
Robert Pattinson’s Mickey 17 May Get Lost In Bong Joon-ho’s Success
It was recently announced that Bong Joon-ho is working on his next film, an animated project that follows a story surrounding sea creatures. The movie will have a worldwide release, and the distribution will be handled by Sony Pictures. While it can be expected that this film will gather quite a lot of attention, considering his reputation and talent, it would seem that it has broken a record before even going into production.
The film is said to have a budget of more than 70 billion won, which is roughly $52 million. While this sum may not seem like a lot by the standards of Hollywood, the film will become the most expensive production in Korean film history, as reported by Daum. It was also reported that the film will go into production after everything surrounding Robert Pattinson’s Mickey 17 has concluded. Despite this, many fans have become concerned about the future of the highly-anticipated film.
