Disney+ unveiled a new crime thriller titled Gold Land, which will star Park Boyoung (Light Shop) and Kim Sung-cheol (The Battle of Jangsari).

The series is written by Hwang Joyoon, the screenwriter behind the critically-acclaimed Korean film Oldboy.

Gold Land follows Heeju (played by Park), a girl from a sleepy backwater town who accidentally comes into possession of gold bars from a smuggling organization. Suddenly finding herself in a van full of gold and on the run from some of Korea’s most dangerous men, Heeju heads towards the one place she swore she would never return.

Kim plays Jang Wook (also known as Woogy), a member of the criminal organization chasing Heeju. However, Jang Wook and Heeju have an old bond, having lived in the same neighborhood when they were growing up.

Gold Land is directed visionary director Kim Sunghoon, who also helmed Chief Detective 1958 and hit film Confidential Assignment.

Disney+ has greenlit “Gold Land,” a Korean original crime thriller series written by Hwang Jo-yoon, the acclaimed screenwriter behind Park Chan-wook’s “Oldboy.”

Hwang Jo-yoon, who penned the 2003 revenge thriller “Oldboy” as well as “Rampant” and “Memoir of a Murderer,” makes his streaming debut with the project.

Park Bo-young (“Light Shop”) and Kim Sung-cheol (“No Way Out: The Roulette”) will topline the fast-paced series about smuggling, loan sharks and escaping one’s past.

“Gold Land” follows Heeju, a woman from a remote town who accidentally comes into possession of gold bars from a smuggling ring. Finding herself in a van full of gold and pursued by dangerous criminals, Heeju races toward the one place she vowed never to return.

Park Bo-young stars as Kim Heeju, a determined woman desperate to escape her past, while Kim Sung-cheol plays Jang Wook (nicknamed “Woogy”), a member of the criminal organization hunting Heeju who grew up in her neighborhood.

Gi-jun has decided to turn to a path of vengeance to seek justice for his brother, and the fourth episode of Mercy For None shows how serious he really is about not letting anything stand in between him and his bloody revenge. Gi-jun moves like an emissary of death, relentless, inevitable, and out of mercy, as his hunt for Jun-mo finally comes to an end. On the other hand, Bong-san comes closer to the truth regarding Gi-seok’s death, but whether that actually amounts to anything remains to be seen.

Yeong-do’s Larger Role

Like the previous episode, Mercy For None episode 4, too, begins with Bong-san trying to pull all the strings to ensure Jun-mo’s safety—and this time he meets with the Yeong-do, who appears to be acting as an advisor to both the gangs of Seoul. As Bong-san mentions, it was Yeong-do who proposed the...

Korean star So Ji-sub returns with another incredible series after headlining shows like Doctor Lawyer, Phantom, My Secret Terrius, and more. He will star as the lead in Netflix’s upcoming series Mercy for None. The series is a John Wick-esque action thriller, which sees Ji-sub play an ex-criminal who gets back into the underworld after a tragedy.

Early reviews have praised the show for building on the style that was first originated by Keanu Reeves’ John Wick and standing out amidst the countless copycats of the action franchise. So Ji-sub’s performance and the action choreography have been termed as the highlight, with some even comparing it to Oldboy and Halloween.

Needless to say, remaking one of the greatest films of all time by arguably the greatest filmmaker of all time for an American crowd is a recipe for probable cinematic sacrilege. Add to this the fact that the American doing the remaking happens to be a director who’s already famously desecrated one classic of Asian cinema, and the prospects for Spike Lee’s “Highest 2 Lowest” appear rather dim from the outset. Fortunately, while his rehash of “Oldboy” was the work of a man clearly indifferent to his product, his reinterpretation of “High and Low” indicates a man who knew what made the original work, and what else could benefit from a modern update.

In a sense, “Highest 2 Lowest” can very well describe the trajectory of Lee’s entire career—a man who, over the course of his storied history, has made unimpeachable classics in between baffling misfires—but through it all,...

Every so often, a movie comes along that you just can’t stop thinking about. Maybe you catch it on a whim, or maybe you’ve been anticipating it for a while, and it’s the rare film that not only meets whatever expectations you had but exceeds them. When it comes to South Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook, that’s exclusively the case. I’ve never been let down, and I consider Oldboy and The Handmaiden among my favorites of all time.

How wonderful that a single filmmaker has two masterpieces. Only, Park Chan-wook doesn’t just have two. His entire filmography is pretty much banger after banger, and just when I thought it couldn’t get any better, his latest film premiered. Decision to Leave is a masterpiece. The film will certifiably renew your faith in cinema—yeah, cinema, baby. It’s gorgeous, stirring, romantic, frightening, funny—everything you could hope for.

The Yi Sun-sin trilogy is an incredibly popular and epic South Korean historical war film series. Finally, all three (3) films are available to watch on the same streaming platform, Roku. . The trilogy is about the three (3) major naval battles led by Admiral Yi Sun-sin during the Imjin Wars (1592–1598). “The Admiral: Roaring Currents” (2014) “Hansan: Rising Dragon” (2022) “Noryang: Deadly Sea (2023) ♦ (1) The Admiral: Roaring Currents (2014) Depicts the Battle of Myeongnyang (1597). “Do not look back when the only course is in front of you.” Watch Free: The Roku Channel Main Character: Admiral Yi Sun-Shin Links Of Interest: ‘The Admiral: Roaring Currents’: Film Review | The Hollywood Reporter Review: ‘The Admiral: Roaring Currents’ a thrilling look at sea battle | Los Angeles Times Inside a 16th-Century Naval Battle: ‘The Admiral,’ a South Korean Film With Choi Min-sik – The New York Times Trailer: Rotten Tomatoes Trailers. “The Admiral: Roaring Currents Official US Release Trailer (2014) – Choi Min-Sik War Drama HD.

Riverdale was a game-changer for several stars who went on to make it big in Hollywood after the iconic show ended in 2023. One of these stars is the iconic American actor Charles Melton.

Well, Melton has been finding fame with some iconic projects like Warfare, May December, and more, coming in recent years. Well, the actor sat down for a chat in a recent interview and went on to talk about the top three directors on his bucket list whom he would like to work with.

Charles Melton wants to work with these three directors!

Starring in Riverdale, the actor portrayed the role of Reggie Mantle for a total of 137 episodes in the iconic show. The drama show had several criminals and strange happenings around the town, which millions of fans loved to watch.

Well, the actor...

There’s enormous risk in remaking a movie like “High and Low.” Japanese master Akira Kurosawa set the bar high with his 1963 take on a kidnapping that brings an ambitious businessman to his knees — which means, even in the hands of such a visionary director as Spike Lee, you can’t help worrying how low a modern, New York-set update might go.

For three-quarters of its running time, Lee’s “Highest 2 Lowest” glides along far better than skeptics might have expected (it’s night and day with his sordid U.S. adaptation of “Old Boy”). And then comes a scene for which there is no equivalent in Kurosawa’s version — a face-off between Denzel Washington and A$AP Rocky as the man with the nerve to ransom his son — and the movie rockets into a sublime new stratosphere, delivering an electrifying last act that’s at once original and deeply personal.

Bad Thoughts is the latest of many attempts by Netflix to team up with a popular comedian and leverage their appeal into mediums beyond the traditional stand-up special that the streamer has more or less cornered the market on. In this case, giving frequent collaborator Tom Segura a chance to explore the darker impulses of humanity via the anthology format.

I’ll be honest, despite generally enjoying stand-up comedy, I’m not really familiar with Segura’s work and thus didn’t really know what to expect going in. And while the end result is enjoyable enough for what it is, I don’t see myself seeking out more of his material based on my experience here.

Given that Bad Thoughts is an anthology series, there isn’t really a traditional plot to be summarized. Each episode consists of about two or three standalone sketches,...

"What happens when a 2,000-year-old immortal warlord decides he’s had enough?"

Writer Brian Buccellato, artist Mattia Monaco, letterer Buddy Beaudoin, and editor Teddy Leo team up for Eat Your Young, a visceral, character-driven blood feud that kicks off this August from Mad Cave Studios. We're thrilled to share the first details and a 4-page preview you can read right now!

From the Press Release: This explosive new six-issue miniseries doesn’t just raise the stakes—it drives them straight through the heart. Eat Your Young blends brutal combat, punk-era flashbacks, Cold War espionage, and raw emotional depth into a genre-smashing epic of family, legacy, and survival. Unflinching and relentless, it’s high-stakes storytelling at its most feral.

What happens when a 2,000-year-old Immortal Warlord decides he’s done? In Eat Your Young, Edmund Irons names his six-year-old daughter, Elsa, as the next Alpha of his immortal clan. But every hundred years,...

"Decision to Leave" is now streaming on Hulu, so you've got an easy decision to watch ahead of you. The 2022 South Korean film, directed by Park Chan-Wook, combines romance and mystery. Distributed stateside by Mubi, "Decision to Leave" racked up impressive streaming viewership over there. Its addition to the Hulu library will likely (and should) expand that viewership even more.

In "Decision to Leave," Busan detective Jang Hae-jun (Park Hae-il) is investigating the death of a rock climber, Ki Doo-soo (Yoo Seung-mok). The dead man's wife, Song Seo-rae (Tang Wei), has a motive; she's a Chinese immigrant and Doo-soo, an immigration officer, essentially blackmailed her into marriage. Seo-rae has scars from physical abuse too. But her husband died by tumbling down an enormous rock, so surely it must've been a suicide or an accident, right? Hae-jun keeps looking into Seo-rae,...

While Western action films often fall into categories such as serious, genre-defining films like “Drive” (2011), or long-running franchises like “Mission: Impossible” or “John Wick,” or even more comedic and mainstream-friendly entries like “Novocaine” (2025), Tamil cinema continues to forge its own path. In recent years, Tamil action films have aimed to be more grounded and emotionally driven with vulnerable protagonists. These films often attempt to combine character depth with stylized actions and layered storylines, which, while admirable, can feel overwhelming when squeezed into runtimes under 130 minutes.

“Retro” (2025) centres on Paari (Played by Suriya), a man shaped by violence and loss from a very young age. His childhood trauma has left him emotionally detached, unable even to smile or laugh ever. Raised by his emotionally distant foster Father (Played by Joju George), who sees Paari not as a son but as another henchman, and following the death of his caring foster mother,...

The modern era of Hollywood only has a handful of true movie stars. The definition of the role has changed fundamentally over the years as the studio system morphed and shifted, and as a result, the amount of undeniably bankable stars the studios actually want to invest in has dwindled. But in the small handful that still remains, Florence Pugh shines as one of the brightest and best movie stars we have today.

She is absolutely fearless in front of the camera, and her taste in roles supports her obvious drive to find the most exciting and challenging ways to build her craft. Though her career has been, realistically, quite short so far, Pugh has already established herself as a risk-taker, and because of that, audiences are excited to show up when she makes the choice to lend her skills to a project. Honestly, she's rarely in something that doesn't deserve high praise.

Hollywood may dominate the global box office, but for true cinephiles, the real rite of passage begins with exploring non-English films, which are, by definition, international movies. Stories from countries/regions introduce us to different cultures and broaden our perspectives, offering a new way to see the world.

Movies like Slumdog Millionaire, from Oscar-winning director Danny Boyle, are prime examples of people, culture, and struggles shown from a foreigner’s lens. For the real taste of the world, audiences have to dive into cinema beyond Hollywood. When Bong Joon-ho accepted the Academy Award for Best Director for Parasite, he famously said, “Once you overcome the one-inch tall barrier of subtitles, you will be introduced to so many more amazing films.”

From action and romance to slice-of-life genre, including animated ones, this list consists of some of the best non-English films that one must definitely watch before they die. Without further ado,...

The lead actor and martial artist who broke onto the scene with one of last year’s best and most underrated action movies has revealed that he has now wrapped on a new action thriller project. Bren Foster, who so impressed genre fans with last year’s Life After Fighting, the tale of a martial arts instructor who must use his skills in the real-world when two of his students are abducted by human traffickers, has now revealed the first look and details about his new upcoming action outing, The Farmer. And it sounds just as thrilling.

Taking to social media, Foster revealed several images from the set of The Farmer, confirming that the action movie has now wrapped and declaring it a “banger.”

“And that’s a wrap on The Farmer, what an absolutely amazing experience. So much passion and drive from everyone involved. Hopefully something special is made...

There’s a discernible bookend quality to season 1 of Daredevil: Born Again, thanks to the creative reboot that happened over the course of production. Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead directed the final two episodes of the season, as well as the premiere, giving an overarching arc that carried through smaller stories like the St. Patrick’s Day bank robbery or the hunt for the serial killer Muse (Hunter Doohan).

“The big things that we did were changing the tone a little bit, into something a bit darker,” Moorhead tells Gold Derby. “By the way, when I say ‘we,’ I mean the two of us, but also of course Marvel and Dario [Scardapane], our showrunner. We also made it more serialized, stretching arcs through every episode. And amusingly, everybody was missing ‘oner’ fights. So we got tasked with being able to bring a oner into the universe, which we would've fought to do anyways.

Few cinematic tools are used as often — and as badly — as the oner. Also known as a long take or a one shot, a oner is pretty much exactly what it sounds like: One shot that goes on for several minutes, sometimes encompassing an entire scene or (in particularly showy films) multiple scenes. Even though it’s ostensibly the absence of trickery, long takes are difficult to pull off, and sometimes are done purely for the sake of being showy rather than them being particularly necessary. But when a long take is justified, and done well, it can be one of the most thrilling things to experience onscreen.

In the early days of cinema, very long takes were relatively rare, as most directors relied on the cinematic foundation of shot-reverse-shot editing to tell stories. One of the earliest examples comes from “The Stranger,” a 1946 thriller directed by Orson Welles. Welles...

Production has wrapped on The Running Man from director Edgar Wright.

In Hollywood there are roles that are forever assigned to the actor bringing them on the big screens. The same was true for actor Samuel L. Jackson, whose portrayal of Nick Fury in the MCU became one of the most iconic characters in modern cinema. But the actor’s take on the no-nonsense S.H.I.E.L.D. director was actually inspired by his long-time friend Bruce Willis.

The duo have collaborated together in many movies, and in an interview, L. Jackson credited Willis for an advice that changed his approach to playing Fury. Let’s dive deeper to understand what that advice was and how it changed the actor’s career trajectory.

Netflix giveth, and Netflix taketh away. For every film, there is a season - and those can creep up on you pretty quickly when it comes to streaming services.

Netflix is constantly adding new content to its servers, as you know. As I'm currently shelling out $38.55 every month, I feel that Netflix could afford to add a few thousand terabytes of storage just from my payment.

Yet here we are, losing great content just as fast as we get the new stuff. Listen, if it means getting a new Knives Out flick, I'll gladly give up The Ridiculous 6. But no, that abomination will likely be the last thing ever streamed by the robots and the lizard people when our sun becomes a red giant and utterly consumes the planet. But the good stuff, that's the stuff we lose. The clock is ticking on three of the best movies that may...

Park Hyung Sik Replaces Kim Soo Hyun As Highest-Paid Korean Actor (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Apart from his good looks, charm, and acting skills, Kim Soo Hyun once garnered widespread popularity as the highest-paid Korean actor. However, since the controversy began after Kim Sae Ron’s death, he has witnessed a significant dip in his popularity. From losing Instagram followers to losing major brand deals and projects, his career is facing an extreme setback right now as his public image continues to get tainted. Amid the situation, an online community post revealed who has replaced Kim Soo Hyun as the highest-paid Korean actor, and it is not Park Seo Joon and Jung Hae In.

The Queen of Tears star previously held the spot with major projects like One Ordinary Day (2021) and It’s Okay to Not Be Okay (2020), for which he reportedly charged 500 million Krw per episode. For his latest hit, Queen of Tears,...

Mr. Wick is again trying to retire in John Wick: Chapter 4. The 2023 John Wick installment has Baba Yaga meeting old friends and making new enemies as the High Table hunts him down for everything he did in the last three movies. The nail-biter sequel to the action franchise is set in various international locations, including Japan and France, where its diverse cast impresses in fight sequences more gruesome than ever.

Some of Keanu Reeves' co-stars in the fourth chapter are seen from the first movie, like Ian McShane and Lance Reddick as the manager and the concierge of the Continental Hotel in New York City. New cast members like Bill Skarsgård and Natalia Tena are fantastic additions, and their characters steal the show in their scenes. Even newcomer Rina Sawayama shines in a minor role, leaving no doubt that the cast of John Wick 4 is outstanding.

Spoilers for "Daredevil: Born Again" follow.

The premiere of "Daredevil: Born Again" wastes no time at all, kicking off with an action scene that's out to remind you of the original "Daredevil" series.

Here's the set-up: Bullseye has attacked Josie's Bar and critically wounded Foggy Nelson (Elden Henson). Matt/Daredevil (Charlie Cox) arrives and attacks Bullseye, fighting him into the bar. Daredevil has strength and rage on his side, so Bullseye is left running. The one-take begins in the interior of Josie's, then follows Bullseye as he makes it up the building's stairwell, Daredevil close behind, before the fight concludes on the roof.

These extended one-take action scenes were a hallmark of the Netflix "Daredevil," which did a new one in each season while trying to one-up the previous scene. The first was in the second ever "Daredevil" episode, "Cut Man" (directed by Phil Abraham). Taking place in an apartment building hallway,...

The rise and triumph of South Korean director Bong Joon-ho is one of the best success stories in modern cinema. Hailing from a country that had little to no film industry, Bong Joon-ho crafted some of the most compelling and internationally accessible films from South Korea as well as ventures in Hollywood blockbusters, all of which have similarities in themes and style that conjoin them all into one of the most unique cinematic voices today.

A remake that took two years to make couldn’t entertain its audience fully for more than two hours and managed to stay on the right lane only for half its runtime. “Vidaamuyarchi” (meaning: Perseverance) is a Tamil road action film starring Ajith Kumar as Arjun, Trisha Krishnan as Kayal, Arjun Sarja as Rakshith, Regina Cassandra as Deepika, and a mix of some Indian and Azerbaijani actors. Directed by Magizh Thirumeni, the film attempts to deliver a gripping action thriller but ends up diluting its core by focusing on unnecessary emotional baggage.

Arjun, the protagonist, was a charming man in his early days but has grown bitter over time. Kayal, once drawn to his presence and personality in their youth, was deeply in love with him. That was twelve years ago. Now, the once-happy couple is struggling with their marriage, on the verge of separation. Before the divorce, an unexpected...

Valentine’s Day might be about flowers, chocolates, and romance – but in horror, love often leads to obsession, betrayal, and bloody revenge. With slasher thrills, supernatural hauntings, or twisted tales of doomed romance, horror movies set around love and relationships add an extra layer of intensity. Interestingly, horror movies that use romance as a device go right back to the origins of horror cinema, intertwining desire with thrills and kills.

For those who prefer their Valentine’s Day with a side of terror, we’ve rounded up the best horror films to watch on February 14th. These movies prove that sometimes, love doesn’t just break your heart – it rips it out.

The Best Valentine’s Day Horror Movies 1. My Bloody Valentine (1981 & 2009)

Few films embody Valentine’s Day horror better than My Bloody Valentine. This cult classic slasher follows a mining town plagued by a masked killer seeking revenge on Valentine’s Day.

South Korea has a strong presence in the international landscape of entertainment, especially in music and cinema. The horror genre has been explored in South Korea since the early days of the country's cinema and evolved significantly throughout the decades, becoming a synonym of innovation and expertise in the genre. K-cinema is particularly associated with some of the best supernatural horror and zombie horror movies, yet Korean horror cinema has something for every taste.

Known for blending cultural themes into horror, the genre has been through different phases. Early Korean horror movies were often cautionary tales that reflected tendencies and fears within Korean society, perfectly exemplified by the 1960 psychological horror movie The Housemaid. Around the late 1990s and early 2000s, the genre experienced a renewal in South Korea. This shift propelled the making of more high-octane action horror, like 2006's The Host, and other subgenres that are still popular in Korean cinema today.

Spain’s Film Factory Entertainment has added to its burgeoning Berlin sales slate of star-laden upscale entertainment titles with market potential, acquiring international distribution rights to psychological mystery thriller “Reversion,” starring Jaime Lorente, who played the conflicted Denver in “Money Heist.”

Film Factory Entertainment will present a first promo of “Reversion”at this week’s European Film Market in Berlin.

As producers push casts as a manner to stand out in a far too crowded market, “Reversion” also stars Manu Vega (“With the Years I have Left”), Belen Rueda, lead in J.A. Bayona’s debut “The Orphanage,” and Fernando Cayo, Coronel Tamayo in “Money Heist.”

Co- written by Marco Legarde (“UFO Factory”) and Frank Ariza (“With the Years I have Left”), alongside first-time director Jacob Santana, “Reversion” turns on Mario (Lorente) who moves to a new house with his parents and older brother David (Vega).

One rainy afternoon, Mario witnesses his brother being violently kidnapped.

Bong Joon-ho’s acclaimed monster action sci-fi The Host has finally received a new streaming update. The 2006 movie was led by Cannes-winning South Korean actor Song Kang-ho, who has been Bong’s long-time collaborator on multiple movies since 1998, including the Oscar-winning black comedy thriller Parasite.

As of Feb. 1, The Host is now available to start streaming on Max, after nearly two decades since making its theatrical debut. The film follows Song’s Gang-du, who is a clumsy single father to a rebellious teenage daughter. He works as a food stand vendor on the banks of the Han River, where a terrifying creature suddenly appears. Chaos ensues, and Gang-du’s daughter gets abducted by the creature, who drags her into the river. Gang-du, along with the rest of his family, decide to rescue her despite the odds. During its theatrical run, it became one of South Korea’s high-grossing movies at the time,...

In 2002, the horror anthology film Three was released, consisting of three horror tales from East Asian countries. The film received accolades and a sequel, which was released two-years-later in the form of Three… Extremes. The anthology follow-up collected three more horror tales from different directors, and was successful enough in the United States that its predecessor received a stateside release. Strangely enough, Three was repackaged to Western audiences as a sequel entitled Three… Extremes II.

Opening up this anthology is Dumplings, the Hong Kong entry from director Fruit Chan. Arriving at a house is Mrs. Li (Miriam Yeung Chin-Wah), a formerly well-known actress who wishes to get dumplings sold by Mei (Bai Ling). They are considered the most expensive for a good reason, as the dumplings miraculously make the eater look younger.

Marco (2024) Movie Review: There is a reason that the word “hero” has become synonymous with “protagonist” in Indian mainstream cinema; the lead role in a given mass masala film is almost always a morally upstanding and decent person who fights for the weak, even if they initially appear otherwise. Yet there has always been a craving for more “grey-shaded” roles from the filmgoing audience. Ajith Kumar’s iconic villainous turn in the Tamil film “Mankatha” (2011) had an impact that is still felt today, as the promise of a similar villainous role for “Thalapathy” Vijay from director Venkat Prabhu was a major selling point of “The Greatest of All Time.” Even “Kgf”, one of the most influential franchises in current memory, is planning to bring back Yash’s Rocky bhai character who, as both films hurry to assure us, is not a hero but a “villain” and even a “monster!

Movie romances never run out of obstacles to throw in the way of the main couple, but the most iconic hurdle of all is the forbidden love story. This trope has been executed countless times throughout cinema history. There's something particularly heart-wrenching and exciting about two people who long to be together but can't, due to circumstances out of their control.

Stories such as Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet have existed for centuries, but the forbidden romance plot line is still relevant today in other variations. From blockbuster hits like Titanic to animated treasures like Beauty and the Beast, these romantic pairings fight to overcome barriers such as class, society, and rivalries to be together. While forbidden romances likely won't go away anytime soon, these couples always stand out as the most iconic.

Denzel Washington went a little bit into his dark childhood life when he was asked about his favorite Stanley Kubrick film. It turned out that the actor wasn’t a huge movie buff in his formative years and ran with the wrong group at the time. Washington didn’t start seriously watching films until he was in his twenties when a talent show proved his acting capabilities.

It's often been said that Hollywood loves a remake, but there are still some classics that audiences agree should be left alone. Occasionally, there are some exciting movie remakes and reboots that can update beloved stories for modern audiences. However, these types of movies are the outliers. Mostly, audiences are sketpical of remakes, and they have every reason to be so, given how some of these projects have flopped in the past.

There's a common sentiment that movie remakes can detract from the brilliance of the original, or at least taint people's memories of them. Remakes like The Ladykillers, Oldboy and Dumbo have all been derided for the way they missed the point of the originals. Some remakes seem like terrible ideas as soon as they are announced, since not all movies need the remake treatment, even if they're decades old.

Josh Brolin has certainly appeared in some strange movies over his career, and it might be a result of his childhood, which the actor recently revealed wasn't always glamorous, despite being the son of revered actor James Brolin. As well as the phenomenal No Country for Old Men, The Goonies and Dune (to name a few), Brolin has also undertaken some strange roles, like Spike Lee's questionable Oldboy remake, Robert Rodriguez's Planet Terror, and the easily forgotten Jonah Hex. Although Josh is the son of James Brolin, who is best known for his TV roles in M.D. and Hotel. Despite appearing as a Hollywood powerhouse father-and-son duo, their relationship may have been fractured at times.
