Michael Fassbender is one of our most versatile actors, delivering amazing performances across genres, though he’s perhaps best known to many for his role as Magneto in the X-Men feature film franchise. Itself a sci-fi juggernaut, another major role that has defined Fassbender’s career is as the android David in both Prometheus and Alien: Covenant (a role he hopes to return to). Though these two characters mark his only foray into science fiction as a performer, he’s about to return to the franchise for the first time with an even wilder character.
NEON has released the first trailer for Hope, the new sci-fi movie from South Korean filmmaker Na Hong-jin. Having previously made his mark on the horror genre with the likes of The Wailing and The Yellow Sea, Na Hong-jin is pushing his sensibilities as a filmmaker in surprising new ways with Hope. Though it is clearly a sci-fi movie since aliens are at the forefront of it all, Hope also appears to be an adrenaline-fueled action movie. Speaking of the aliens, though, that’s how Fassbender fits into it all, as the actor will play one of the extraterrestrials central to the film’s wild plot.
