Spike Lee's OLDBOY Remake Gets an Artsy Poster

Spike Lee's OLDBOY Remake Gets an Artsy Poster


Ten years after Chan-wook Park’s Korean film Oldboy made waves internationally, American filmmaker Spike Lee‘s remake is closing in on its October release date. Starring Josh Brolin as a man who is kidnapped, held for twenty years and then suddenly released, Oldboy is a bloody story of vengeance. The film co-stars Samuel L. Jackson, Elizabeth Olsen and Michael Imperioli.

This first official poster is rather metaphorical and I like it. Brolin looking cool bustin’ out of a box? I’m sold.

Oldboy is directed by Spike Lee and stars Josh Brolin, Samuel L Jackson, Elizabeth Olsen and Michael Imperioli. It hits theaters on October 25.
