First Look: Mickey 17 Trailer Features Parasite Director Repeatedly Killing Robert Pattinson

After what feels like an eternity, the Mickey 17 trailer has finally arrived, and it’s as wonderfully bizarre as fans had anticipated.

For those questioning whether Bong Joon-ho’s upcoming sci-fi film could rival the madness of Parasite, the Mickey 17 trailer may just change your mind.

Featuring Robert Pattinson in the lead role, Mickey 17 follows a man who serves as “an expendable”— an individual who repeatedly faces death to assist human research. The film promises to deliver a thrilling, universe-hopping adventure infused with remarkable body-double comedy.

The Mickey 17 trailer premiered today, September 18, and it’s clear that excitement levels are soaring. You can watch the trailer yourself below:

There’s a lot to delve into, not least of which is Robert Pattinson’s outstanding voice performance. With breathtaking visual effects and an impressive cast, which includes Pattinson, Mark Ruffalo, Toni Collette, and Steven Yeun, Mickey 17 has quickly become one of the most highly-anticipated films of 2025.

“One thing that can’t be denied about Robert Pattinson — he’s a performer,” praised one X user. “His voice acting and capability to blend humor with drama and oddity sets him apart from his contemporaries.”

Another commented: “It’s amazing that Robert Pattinson is considered the best actor of his generation, yet simultaneously seems to be embodying a lobotomized jester spirit from 1340’s Austria. Such duality!”

“Robert Pattinson as a quirky character. IN SPACE. I’m seated. The theater staff are alarmed and telling me to leave as it’s ‘not January yet,’ but I’m just too enthralled,” remarked another user.

The release of the Mickey 17 trailer is a welcome relief for many fans, especially after the film faced significant delays.

Mickey 17 is now set to hit theaters on January 31, 2025.
