Teaser Trailer for Park Chan-wook's 'No Other Choice' Dark Comedy

"In America, getting fired is called 'getting the axe'... We say, 'it's your neck.'" Surprise - Neon has unveiled a teaser trailer for the new Korean dark comedy from the brilliant Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook, his latest feature film since making Decision to Leave back in 2022. No Other Choice is the title of his new one, which is based on the 1997 novel called "The Ax" written by Donald Westlake. A fresh new murderous tale from one of the great Korean masters of dark & depraved thrills! Here's the quick intro to this sneaky setup: After being laid off and unemployed for several years, a man devises a unique plan to finally secure a new job: eliminate his competition. Starring Lee Byung-hun as Man-soo, along with Son Ye-jin, Yeom Hye-ran, Park Hee-soon, Yoo Yeon-seok, and Cha Seung-won.
