Acclaimed director Bong Joon-ho returns with Mickey 17, starring Robert Pattinson (Twilight, The Batman). Pattinson plays an "expendable"—a clone repeatedly sent on deadly missions, only to be replaced when he dies. Interestingly, Pattinson has stated that Cedric Diggory is the character he'd most like to give a second chance at life, a sentiment that resonates with the film's themes.
IGN critic Siddhant Adlakha's review describes Mickey 17 as a "depressing" sci-fi comedy with profound philosophical undertones. He notes its confrontational pessimism, transforming a straightforward novel into a stark reflection of contemporary political realities, holding everyone accountable for their actions.

Mickey 17 Streaming Release Date
Mickey 17 will stream on Max, not Netflix or Hulu, as Warner Bros. (the distributor) owns the Max streaming service. Considering Warner Bros.' previous release patterns (Beetlejuice arrived on Max three months after its theatrical release), Mickey 17 will likely be available on Max by late July. However, the release date could vary, as demonstrated by Joker: Folie à Deux's earlier digital release due to a weak box office opening.
