What is Robert Pattinson's Mickey 17 all about?

With an 88% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, Bong Joon-ho's "Mickey 17" is about Mickey, an expendable clone worker who takes on dangerous tasks.

The hook of the film is that when Mickey does dangerous tasks, he will not survive and then he will regenerate every time he dies. His 17th clone, also known as Mickey 17 was wrongfully assumed to be dead and because of that, he must face the Mickey 18 to fight the system and the colony that they are part of.


Mickey 17's promos are hilariously weird and very out of this world—latching on to the idea that Pattinson's characters are being reborn every after dangerous tasks, making the viewers want to watch the film and enjoy all of Robert Pattinson's versions of Mickey!
