Trivia
Bugonia (2025) is an adaptation inspired by the 2003 South Korean film Save the Green Planet! (2003). Initially, the original director, Jang Joon-hwan, was set to helm the project, working with American screenwriter Will Tracy on the screenplay. Due to health-related delays that prevented Jang Joon-hwan's continued involvement, CJ Entertainment, drawn to Yorgos Lanthimos' distinctive directorial vision, appointed him to lead the project forward instead.
