Na Hong-Jins 'Hope' will not be published in 2025-World of Reel

Although Park Chan-Wook, Bong Joon-Ho, Lee Chang-Dong and Kim Ji-Woon were the main names for the Korean cinema, another filmmaker who is worthy of inclusion and discussion should be absolutely Na Hong-Jin. Take a look at “The Chaser” if you haven't done it yet – it's pretty incredible.

At the end of 2023, Na Hong-Jin began with the production of “Hope”, in which Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander play the leading role, but it sounds like he was taking time in the machining room because the Korean media reports that the Film is the film I won't be finished in time For 2025 publication.

“Hope” follows the history of the residents of a small port city that make an amazing discovery on the outskirts of their country. Then things go south, because the residents then have to fight for their survival against something they have never met before.

Last year I heard a rumor that “Hope” could be divided into two parts, which could be another reason why NA takes so long in the machining room. Regardless of this, you can scratch this for this year's film festivals.

The last film by NA was the remarkable murder mytery of 2016 “The Wailing”. I hadn't expected that I had entered this screening a lot, and it honestly brought me away how he drove the different genres in the film.
