Acclaimed director Bong Joon-ho teams up with Robert Pattinson (Twilight, The Batman) in the new sci-fi film, Mickey 17. Pattinson plays an "expendable"—a clone repeatedly sent on dangerous missions, only to be replaced after each death. Pattinson himself has even joked that the character is reminiscent of Cedric Diggory, a role he wishes he could revisit.
IGN critic Siddhant Adlakha describes Mickey 17 as a "depressing" yet philosophically rich sci-fi comedy. He notes the film's pessimistic outlook, using the straightforward source material to create a pointed commentary on current political realities, holding everyone accountable for their actions.

Mickey 17 Streaming Release Date
Mickey 17 will stream on Max, not Netflix or Hulu, due to Warner Bros.' ownership of the platform. Considering Warner Bros.' past releases (Beetlejuice arrived on Max three months after its theatrical release, while Joker: Folie à Deux had a faster digital release due to a weak box office opening), we anticipate Mickey 17 will likely be available on Max by late July.
