Coming soon to Netflix is Uprising, a South Korean period actioner from multi-talented filmmaker Kim Sang-man (Girl Scout), who has served as both art director and score composer on 2006’s Bloody Tie for director Choi Ho, as well as art director for Park Chan-wook’s 2000 classic, Joint Security Area. The film sees Kim re-teaming with Park, who is writing and producing the project.
Uprising stars Gang Dong-won (Dr. Cheon and the Lost Talisman), Park Jeong-min (Fists of Legend) and Cha Seung-won (Believer 2).
Set in the Joseon era during a tumultuous time in the aftermath of war, take a journey through the lives of two childhood friends-turned-adversaries: Cheon Yeong, a slave with remarkable martial prowess; and Jong Ryeo, Cheon Yeng’s master and scion of Joseon’s most influential military family.
The film also stars Kim Shin-rok (Burning), Jin Seon-kyu (Extreme Job) and Jung Sung-il (Project Wolf Hunting).
Uprising arrives on Netflix in October/November of this year. We expect a Trailer to hit soon. Until then, check out a promotional image below:
