Ji Chang-wook performs a criminal, Andy, in Revolver, co-starring Jeon Do-yeon and Lim Ji-yeon, a crime-action revenge film scheduled for launch on August 7.
Ji paints Andy with a deft mixture of nuanced glances, deliberate gestures, and an depth of inside complexity, constructing the character’s grayness. As Andy teases seasoned villainy in the film trailer, he suggests he’s coming to fire up bother.
Directed by Oh Seung-uk, Revolver follows Ha Soo-young (Jeon), an ex-cop jailed for doubtful costs who goes on a quest upon her launch.
It dawns on the lady that the promised recompense for her incarceration has not materialized, so she resolves to retrieve it. In the method, Soo-young learns of Andy because the mastermind driving issues and begins her dogged mission to get even with him.
Andy’s damaged guarantees and lies, in essence, ignite the fireplace in the movie, and Ji performs the darkish facet with a lot type and presence—a reckless appeal you can not deny. How he totally embraces Andy’s villainy—its hidden currents of ambition, deception, and a warped sense of actuality—is typical of Ji Chang-wook’s appearing genius, solidifying the character’s essential position in molding the story.
At a current press convention for Revolver, Ji stated he needs to be known as “Mad Dog,” Andy’s nickname in the movie. Because of his restricted potential relative to his possessions, the man is imperfect and susceptible to errors, he added, summarizing Andy as a “troublemaker.” He additional revealed that, primarily due to director Oh Seung-uk and co-actor Jeon Do-yeon, he took on the venture. Besides, it was urged by the CEO of its manufacturing firm, Sanai Pictures, whereas filming for the drama The Worst of Evil. Playing Andy, he expressed, was enjoyable and never unfamiliar to him, however those that watched him carry out on set stated it was a new model of him.
The Korean heartthrob makes periodic appearances in the trailer, showcasing Andy’s shenanigans with vivid expressions. He is treacherous and cryptic—in his methods with Soo-young—to keep away from paying her the cash he promised in alternate for her imprisonment to cowl his crimes. Ji Chang-wook deftly presents him the best way he’s: twisted, vicious, and sardonic, and strikes a stability between, I imagine, the character’s exterior scheming and his inside battle, emphasizing the complexity of who or how he’s.
You know, in my estimation, when a flawed, dynamic man like Andy is rendered by a lionized actor like Ji Chang-wook, it does go previous display time and kind of makes you think about the performing part of wickedness alongside the interesting creative ability that brings him to life. And truthfully talking, I can’t look forward to the actor to interrupt unhealthy and unleash chaos on display.
