“Unemployment is not my fault!” Ha ha. CJ Entertainment has debuted the main official Korean trailer for the new dark comedy titled No Other Choice from masterful Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook, his latest macabre feature film since making Decision to Leave back in 2022. No Other Choice is the title of his new one, which is based on the 1997 novel called “The Ax” written by Donald Westlake. There’s even a scene in this trailer where a character utters “there’s no other choice.” A fresh new murderous tale from one of the great Korean masters of dark & depraved thrills! Here’s the quick intro to this sneaky setup: After being laid off and unemployed for several years, a man devises a unique plan to finally secure a new job: eliminate his competition. Starring Lee Byung-hun as Man-soo, along with Son Ye-jin, Yeom Hye-ran, Park Hee-soon, Yoo Yeon-seok, and Cha Seung-won. It’s premiering at the 2025 Venice Film Festival later this week – hence why this full Korean trailer just debuted. This looks mad brilliant and sneaky fun! As expected from Park Chan-wook, of course. I cannot wait to watch & enjoy it. English subtitles in the first video below. // Continue Reading ›
