Korean director Na Hong-Jin (The Wailing) will make his much-anticipated return with Hope, and Variety reports that the sci-fi action thriller with an A-list ensemble is eyeing a 2026 release.
Hope, now in post-production, is slated for a summer 2026 release.
The cast includes Hwang Jung-min (The Wailing), Zo In-sung (Moving), Hoyeon (“Squid Game”), Michael Fassbender (Alien: Covenant, Prometheus), Alicia Vikander (The Green Knight, Ex Machina), Taylor Russell (Bones and All), and Cameron Britton (“The Umbrella Academy,” “Mindhunter”).
The ambitious thriller is set in “the remote village of Hope Harbor, near the heavily fortified Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). When a tiger is suspected to have appeared and local police chief Bum-seok is alerted, it throws the community into chaos. But what begins as a local emergency soon spirals into a deeper, more terrifying mystery, one that forces the town’s residents to confront the unknown.
“Hwang will play Bum-seok, while Zo co-stars as Sung-ki, a headstrong local who tracks a dangerous creature into the forest. Making her feature film debut, Hoyeon plays Sung-ae, a principled rookie officer navigating a crisis beyond her training. Meanwhile, Fassbender, Vikander, Russell, and Britton appear as extraterrestrials whose arrival in Hope Harbor accelerates the town’s unraveling and deepens the mystery.”
Hong Kyung-pyo (The Wailing, Parasite) is on board as cinematographer.
Na Hong-Jin previously said in a statement, “Oftentimes, a person’s goodwill can lead to unintended catastrophe simply because of differences in perspective. My hope for this film is to cinematically capture that phenomenon in a way that has yet to be seen.”
Stay tuned for more on Hope as it arrives.
