New Trailer for Korean Meta Comedy 'Cobweb' Made by Kim Jee-woon

"Director Kim's sets are a total soap opera." Umbrella Ent. in Australia has released a full official trailer for the Korean comedy Cobweb, which first premiered at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival earlier this year. It's the latest film made by acclaimed Korean filmmaker Kim Jee-woon (The Good the Bad the Weird, I Saw the Devil, Age of Shadows), with a meta story about a filmmaker trying to make a masterpiece and realizing how hard that really is. The story is set in Seoul in 1970 and focuses on Kim, a director who is dissatisfied with the ending of his project entitled "Cobweb". Despite many obstacles and interference from censorship authorities, disgruntled actors & producers, Kim is determined to rework the ending of his film in just two days, in hopes of making it a masterpiece. "In 1970s Korea, when both art and dreams are censored, a film director dreams of a masterpiece." The main cast includes Song Kang-ho, Park Jeong-su, Im Soo-jung, Oh Jung-se, Jeon Yeo-been, and Krystal Jung. This received mostly positive reviews out of a Cannes - it's a bit too long.
