New Poster Revealed For Spike Lee’s ‘Oldboy’
Spike Lee’s Oldboy is just a few months away from theatres at this point, and strangely enough we still haven’t seen any footage from it. That’s set to change next week with the film’s first trailer scheduled to debut on Wednesday, but until then, FilmDistrict has just unveiled an oddly stylish new poster for the film.
The tagline for the movie is fantastic, and definitely sets the stage for what’s to come. Embarrassingly, despite uncountable recommendations, I still haven’t seen Park Chan-wooks acclaimed original film. I’m running out of time to do so, so I’ll definitely have to put a priority on that one.
Take a look at the new poster below, and let us know if you’re excited! Oldboy hits theatres on October 25th.
OLDBOY follows the story of an advertising executive (Josh Brolin) who is kidnapped and held hostage for 20 years in solitary confinement without any indication of his captor’s motive. When he is inexplicably released, he embarks on an obsessive mission to discover who orchestrated his bizarre and torturous punishment only to find he is still trapped in a web of conspiracy and torment. His quest for revenge leads him into an ill-fated relationship with a young social worker (Elizabeth Olsen) and ultimately to an illusive man (Sharlto Copley) who allegedly holds the key to his salvation.
