Plot details for the movie have not been confirmed, and it’s unclear how closely Bong plans to stick to the source material. Ashton’s book was published in February 2022.
“Mickey 7” is Bong’s first film since “Parasite”, which became the highest-grossing South Korean film ever, as well as the first non-English language film to win the Best Picture Oscar. Of its six Academy Award nominations, the twisted black comedy took home awards for Original Screenplay, Director and International Feature. Before “Parasite” became a hit, Bong was known for acclaimed films like “Snowpiercer”, “The Host”, “okay” Y “Barking Dogs Never Bite”.
In addition to writing and directing, Bong will also produce the upcoming film through his company Offscreen. Other producers include Plan B’s Dede Gardner and Jeremy Kleiner and Kate Street Pictures’ Dooho Choi. Peter Dodd will oversee on behalf of Warner Bros.
