After the first superhero blockbuster started with Captain America: Brave New World in February, a multi-million dollar sci-fi adventure is now announcing itself. It takes us to an icy planet on which humanity – or at least a small part of this – tries to find a new home.
We are talking about Mickey 17, the new film by Parasite director Bong Joon-Ho. According to his Oscar triumph, he points to us in a dark vision of the future, in which not only is the conquest of foreign worlds possible. The cloning of people is also the order of the day, as Robert Pattinson experiences first -hand.
This week new to the cinema: Robert Pattinson has to die 16 times in the science fiction film Mickey 17
In Mickey 17 Pattinson slips into the role of the somewhat defeated Mickey Barnes, who reports as a so -called expendable for space mission without reading the small print. As it turns out, he gives up any claim to himself and his body. From now on he has to perform dangerous tasks on the way to the icy planet of Nilfheim.
Here you can watch the trailer for Mickey 17:

Should Mickey die – no problem: then he is simply left out of the printer. One clone dies, the next comes. That is the eternal cycle for the rest of his life. At least until an older version survives and looks into the face of its new image. Mickey 17 and Mickey 18 exist at the same time.
Actually, this is prohibited: so -called multiples are one of the few rules that humanity is still adhering to. However, the double Mickey is likely to be the smallest problem, because on Nilfheim the colonialists await: inside a whole horde of nasty creatures that like the swampworms from King Kong through the snow.
According to Snowpiecer, Bong Joon-Ho with Mickey 17 created the next bitterly evil sci-fi satire
Mickey 17 is based on the novel Mickey 7 by Edward Ashton. It is not the first time that Bong films a dystopia that previously appeared in printed form. Already in 2013 he unleashed the end -time graphic novel snow piercer on the large screen. Now he ventures on a foreign planet.
Again, it is about class struggle and capitalism, while we get to know weird figures in a relentless vision of the future. A satirical spark flight sparked the revolution this time, while the villain embodied by Mark Ruffalo turns into the caricature of a certain US president.
After Mickey 17 was seen at the Berlinale in February as part of the Special Gala, the film now starts regularly in German cinemas. From the March 6, 2025 Can you plunge into Bong Joon-Ho’s idiosyncratic science fiction blockbuster.
