>A former European spy, accepts a confidential mission from a Japanese businessman exiled to France to take down the head of the most treacherous Yakuza boss in Japan.
>The spy was one of the leading spies in Europe. An injury inflicted to his vocal cords during a failed mission six years ago left him mute, forcing him to leave his profession. Now, six years later, he is sought out and put on confidential assignment by a former Yakuza, now a retired Japanese businessman in exile in France, to track down and kill the head of the most dangerous Yakuza family in Japan.
>Afraid of flying, our spy anonymously boards a cargo ship headed for Tokyo. An onboard explosion sinks the ship and our spy finds himself washed ashore on a life raft in southern Japan. As a mute, our spy must silently journey through Japan seeking 4 clues – symbolizing conquest, war, famine, and death – which will guide him to the unknown location of the Yakuza boss. Meanwhile, the Yakuza boss, known for his 2004 mass slaughter of Yakuza members who had turned against him, is believed to be plotting to reenter the Japanese underworld after living in his own surreptitious world in the mountains, void of all technology. This way of life becomes an obsession for the Yakuza boss. Rumors spread that he had committed suicide years ago but escaped prisoners from his hidden camp told stories of his plan for a comeback. Now rival Yakuza families suspect he is forming a master plan to return, a plan that unburies the most infamous story of Yakuza betrayal.
>Our spy finds himself on an existential journey through Japan in search of pieces to the puzzle that will lead him to a confrontation with the ultimate Yakuza boss in a terrifying conclusion.
>An injury inflicted to his vocal cords during a failed mission six years ago left him mute He did it, he finally has an actual mute character.

>implying plot matters in a Refn film Other aspects like the soundtrack and color scheme are far more important.

K I N O I N O
Juan Myers
this is a sequel to Valhalla Rising
Andrew Peterson
Well, he did once say that he wanted to make a Jap sequel to Valhalla Rising, so that would make sense.
Leo Morales
Drive was a sequel to Valhalla Rising
Jordan Wilson
MADS KINO
Charles Hall
Refn is so desperate he has marketers shill his movies on Sup Forums. This is all sorts of sad.
Henry Turner
Oh nice. Another pretentious flick about apathetic peoples brutally killing each other in the end.
Christian White
Please let this happen
Colton Morales
Just you fucking watch Avengers for the nth time, sad shit
David Reed
Is it in production?
Robert Clark
Nevermind, read the article.
Jacob Green
good god there will be blood
Cooper Gutierrez
He went full anime. Lovin' it.
Dominic Thompson
bugger off, Lars
Jaxson Roberts
wow, sounds rather stupid. someone get this guy a real screenwriter, please. Only God Forgives was horrendous and The Neon Demon vapid. both were visually stunning films, though.
Jaxon Moore
Sounds like it's inspired by OGF, the weird white foreigner having an existential journey filled with mystery in an Asian criminal underworld, seeking for his almost mythical opponent.
Matthew Cox
>someone get this guy a real screenwriter, please. Read the article, pleb.
>Bond veterans Neal Purvis and Robert Wade (“Casino Royale,” “Quantum Of Solace,” “Skyfall,” “Spectre“) are writing the script for the film
Samuel Reyes
>mighty whitey vs those evil Asians crap
trash
you think hollwood learned their lesson with Lucy
Adam Lopez
>refn >story Who cares. It'll be kino even if he films Kojima furiously mastrubating
Brody Hall
>>mighty whitey vs those evil Asians crap You're an idiot who doesn't know anything about Refn. In Only God Forgives the most evil characters are white and Ryan Gosling's character gets the shit kicked out of him by an Asian character.
Kayden Torres
let me clarify: someone get this guy a REAL screenwriter, please. Bond writers are not in that set of screenwriter. they are glorified blockbuster typists kin to Bay's Transformers writing team only with better source material.
Thomas Green
>Another Refn movie about an autistic lead wandering about an ocean of neon and synth Drive was enough
Robert Watson
Will it have an autistic lead?
John Parker
There isn't even a trailer yet and you're already whining about racism. Kill yourself.
one of the best scenes is when the police detective does his lounge singing
weirdest most memorable thing id seen that year
Lucas Foster
Again with the chink shit!? jesus.
Easton Roberts
Can't wait to see how deep Refn up in his own ass this time
Mason Nelson
If all his shit keeps bombing and getting panned. Who is giving him money to make movies?
Andrew Rogers
>panned lol
his stuff is always love it or hate it
huge number of critics love his films and a huge number hate
its not like hes universally considered to be a total shit film maker
Jackson Sullivan
I think it'll be more like Valhalla Rising.
Julian Hall
It's not. Also, Europeean producers are always more generous than American kikes.
Jaxson Richardson
Hopefully Gosling's playing the lead so we finally get the autism trilogy. It'd make sense too: a strong, silent man who works outside the law who becomes more silent and more outside the law with each film.
Thomas Nelson
Cahiers named Neon Demon the 3rd best film of 2016
Jaxson Green
> Yakuza boss is Mads Mikkelsen as Odin from Vallhala Rising > Gosling and Mads silently beating shit out of each other in neon setting as synthipop playing Ultimate Refn kino
Zachary Johnson
If he was some third rate Hollywood wannabe his career would already be over. But since he's a European arthouse director he'll be able to make films until the day he dies. There are tons of rich artsy people who like to fund arthouse films.
James Ward
Like Jeff Bezos
Thomas Evans
It's interesting how powerful Bezos has become in the last few years, he was at for fucking Golden Globes last Sunday
Brayden Ward
This is all good, but what's happening with Trier's serial killer movie?
Angel Sanders
I hope.
David Morris
no, Sup Forums is not relevant at all to pay marketers to shill shit in here, marketer go for youtube reviewers, newspapers and shit like that, stuff that resonates in the real world, not a confined board full of frogposters and baneposters
Gabriel Watson
How much neon is in Valhalla Rising?
Adrian Myers
To be fair, the police captain is literally supposed to be like an avenging angel or something.
Anthony Wilson
None of the leads in any of the Pusher movies are autistic Tbh
Aaron Peterson
Too bad Mads doesn't like Refn that much.
Would be ultimate Refnkino if he got Kim Bodnia to play a demon or something that watches over them
