Focus Features has dropped a new teaser trailer for Yorgos Lanthimos’s latest outing, “Bugonia” starring Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, Aidan Delbis, Stavros Halkias & Alicia Silverstone. The film is an eerie dark-comedy remake of the 2003 South Korean sci-fi film “Save the Green Planet!“, written and directed by Jang Joon-Hwan.

Plot Synopsis: Two conspiracy obsessed young men kidnap the high-powered CEO of a major company, convinced that she is an alien intent on destroying planet Earth.

The English-language version of the Korean film was developed by Miky Lee’s CJ ENM with “Eddington” writer-director Ari Aster and Lars Knudsen at Square Peg. Ed Guiney and Andrew Lowe are producing for Element Pictures along with Lanthimos, Aster, Knudsen, Stone and Lee and Jerry Kyoungboum Ko for CJ ENM.

Stone has worked with Lanthimos for 4th times, on “The Favourite“, “Poor Things“ and “Kinds of Kindness“, which also starred Plemons.

Universal Pictures will release “Bugonia” internationally, excluding Korea, where CJ ENM will handle the local release. Focus Features will release “Bugonia“ in select theaters in the U.S. on Oct. 24, followed by a wide expansion on Oct. 31.
