One of the greatest and most jaw-droppingly shocking movies of all time, Park Chan-wook’s Oldboy turns 20 years old here in 2023, and a fresh new restoration is on the way.
He’s back. Check out the official poster below and expect the trailer TOMORROW.
From what we gather, NEON will be bringing this new restoration of the original Oldboy to theaters this year, and we expect to learn much more with the trailer debut tomorrow.
Variety had noted in a report back in August 2022, “It will mark the first time Park’s film plays on the big screen since its initial release on November 21, 2003.”
The acclaimed film stars Choi Min-sik as Oh Dae-Su, a man who was kidnapped and imprisoned for 15 years. After he’s released, he has five days to find his captor.
Yoo Ji-tae and Kang Hye-jung also star in Oldboy, which was remade in 2013.
Park Chan-wook’s 2003 original became the first piece in the Korean filmmaker’s “Vengeance Trilogy,” which also includes Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance and Lady Vengeance.
