A new trailer for Bong Joon-ho's long-delayed sci-fi black comedy Mickey 17 has arrived - and we're so ready.
In the brief clip, which can be viewed below, Robert Pattinson's Mickey Barnes decides he doesn't want to live on Earth anymore and signs up for a rather strange alternative - but doesn't read the paperwork. We see Pattinson die over and over again before coming face-to-face with one of his copies, which goes on to have a life and love story of his own. Plus, we still can't get over the voice Pattinson choice for Mickey - which he apparently based on the '90s Nicktoon Ren and Stimpy.
Per the official synopsis, Mickey signs up to be an "expendable," a disposable employee where after one iteration dies, a new body is regenerated with most of their memories intact. After one of his "multiples", Mickey 17, unintentionally survives a human expedition to colonize the ice world Niflheim, he goes head to head with a new multiple, Mickey 18.
The film is based on the 2022 novel Mickey 7 by Edward Ashton. The cast includes Naomi Ackie, Steven Yeun, Toni Collette, Mark Ruffalo, Holliday Grainger, and Anamaria Vartolomei.
Mickey 17 was initially slated for a March 2024 release before being taken off the 2024 release schedule indefinitely due to the SAG-AFTRA strike. The pic was moved again to January 2025, then April, before finally settling on a March release date.
Mickey 17 hits theaters on March 7. For more, check out our list of the most exciting upcoming movies in 2025 and beyond, or, check out our list of movie release dates.
