Mickey 17 Information Cast Release Date Trailer Original Differences Summary

- Robert Pattinson (as Mickey)
- The actor who appeared in Twilight, Tenet, and The Batman!
- This time, he will appear as the clone human, The Expandable, and show off a tremendous acting transformation.

- Steven Yeun (as Berto)
- An Academy Award-winning actor for Minari!
- He's Mickey's friend, but in the original, he also shows some betrayal-like behavior, so expectations are high.

- Appears as a character who has a close relationship with Mickey.
- Could there be elements of romance?

3. Mickey 17 Premiere Review (Reaction to Footage Release)

There was a recent screening of the footage, and the response was incredibly enthusiastic.

In particular, there were many reactions saying that Mickey's voice-changing acting, played by Robert Pattinson, was amazing.

In the original, there are parts where the Expandables are slightly different even though they are the same in terms of setting, so I'm really curious about how they will express this.

And since Director Bong Joon-ho's unique style is definitely alive and well, it seems like we can expect something like Snowpiercer or Parasite.

4. Mickey 17 Original Ending (Contains Spoilers!)

The film is based on Edward Ashton's science fiction novel Mickey7.

But! The original title was Mickey 7, and the movie was Mickey 17!
Since the numbers have changed, it's likely that the content will be different from the original, right?

Summary of the original story

- The main character, Mickey Barnes, is a cloned human called 'The Expendable'.
- If you die while performing a dangerous mission, you can survive again by backing up your memories in a new body.
- But one day, a new Mickey (Mickey 8) was born, but he didn't die in an accident.
- Duplicate Expandables are a grave sin, and if caught you will be put to death!
- Mickey 7 and Mickey 8 secretly coexist and struggle to survive.
- After a continued confrontation with the alien life form Creeper, Mickey 7 succeeds in negotiating.
- In the end, he refuses to live the life of the Expandables and gains freedom.

The ending itself is rather hopeful, which makes you wonder if the movie will go in a different direction from the original!

What about in the movie?
- Since it changed from Mickey 7 to Mickey 17, there will likely be more replication processes.
- Since the original work had a fairly hopeful ending, the movie is likely to be more extreme or have a twist.
- If it's in the style of director Bong Joon-ho, it might be a Parasite-level twist + shocking ending?

5. Mickey 17, should I read the original and watch it?

YES!
- If you read the original, you can understand the clones and the Expandables setting more deeply.
- It's fun to compare what has changed in the movie.

NO!
- Director Bong Joon-ho's signature directing and adaptation will be heavily incorporated. (It is highly likely that it will be different from the original!)
- If you know the ending in advance, it might be less fun.

Conclusion: It's good to know the original before watching it, but you can also enjoy the movie itself as a new story!

    한국 전 세계 최초 개봉에 복제인간 소재라니 극장 사수 필수입니다.
