Bong Joon-ho’s 2013 train-based, class-warfare themed, action-packed dramaSnowpierceris a modern sci-fi classic, so it’s with an understandable amount of anticipation that we look forward to the writer/director’s newest project,Okja.
The creature feature, somewhat shrouded in mystery even after today’s first look provided by Netflix in a teaser trailer, is decidedly different from Bong Joon-ho’s 2006 horror-slanted effortThe Host.
Whereas that film focused on a creature created unintentionally through negligence and pollution,Okja’s beastie feels like a very intentional synthesis of nature and science, as described by starTilda Swintonin the trailer.
We get only a glimpse at the new lifeform here, but it’s more than enough to keep us excited for the Netflix release later this summer.
Also starringJake Gyllenhaal,Lily Collins,Giancarlo Esposito,Paul Dano, andAhn Seo-Hyun, the Netflix Original MovieOkjawill be available on June 28th.
Check out the trailer teaser below:
And here’s the official synopsis forOkja:
