Acclaimed director Bong Joon-ho teams up with Robert Pattinson (Twilight, The Batman) in Mickey 17, a sci-fi thriller with comedic elements. Pattinson plays an "expendable," a clone repeatedly sent on deadly missions to colonize a hostile ice planet, only to be replaced each time he perishes. This raises intriguing philosophical questions, as highlighted by IGN critic Siddhant Adlakha, who describes the film as a "stark reflection of the current political moment," albeit a pessimistic one.

Mickey 17 Streaming Release Date
Mickey 17 will stream on Max. Considering Warner Bros.' release patterns (Beetlejuice streamed three months after theatrical release), a late July release on Max is a likely estimate. This contrasts with the quicker digital release of Joker: Folie à Deux, which was influenced by its box office performance.
