“The Villainess” Theatrical Poster
Filmmaker Jung Byung-gil – known for his films Confession of Murder and fan favorite The Villainess – is stepping into Hollywood for Monarch Media’s Havoc (not related to Gareth Evans’ planned film of the same name), a thriller written by Eric Tipton, off an original idea by Steve Barnett (300) and Daniel Myrick (The Blair Witch Project).
Inspired by actual events, Havoc tells the story of a U.S. helicopter crashing on the North Korean side of the DMZ. With tensions between the North and South already on the verge of war, the surviving U.S. Army Reservists must work together to protect a civilian tech-specialist and find their way across the DMZ, without the possibility of U.S. military support. Both Jung and Kim served in the South Korean military, performing several missions with U.S. soldiers, and plan to bring their experiences to Havoc (via Deadline).
Havoc has a planned production to begin in South Korea in Spring. We’ll keep you updated on this film as we learn more.
That guy should have stayed in South Korea. American dream is a fiction (a fraud) for simpletons.
