Acclaimed director Bong Joon-ho and Robert Pattinson (of Twilight and The Batman fame) team up for Mickey 17. Pattinson plays an "expendable"—a clone repeatedly sent on dangerous missions, only to be replaced after each death. Interestingly, Pattinson has stated that Cedric Diggory is the character he'd most like to give a second chance to, a sentiment that resonates with the film's themes.
IGN critic Siddhant Adlakha describes Mickey 17 in his review as a "depressing" sci-fi comedy with profound philosophical undertones. He notes its confrontational pessimism, transforming a seemingly straightforward novel into a stark commentary on the current political climate, 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.' previous releases (Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, which streamed three months after theatrical release, and Joker: Folie à Deux, which had a faster digital release due to a poor box office opening), Mickey 17 is likely to arrive on Max by late July.
