With a production budget of KRW24 billion (equivalent to approximately HK$160 million) and the first reunion of Song Joong-ki and Jo Sung-hee since ‘‘A Werewolf Boy’’, the film is expected to become the talk of the town upon its release in Summer 2020.
 

‘‘Cherry’’ is an adaptation from Nico Walker’s semi-autobiographical novel under the same title. It tells the story of the author who, after joining the American army in his youth, serving as an army medic in Iraq and retiring from military, suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) due to his experience in the battlefield. He became a drug addict, and, to satisfy his desire for drugs, he degenerated into a bank robber. Arrested and confined to prison in 2011, ‘‘Cherry’’ is the publication of his writings in jail. This film is the first movie directed by the Russo Brothers (Anthony Russo and Joe Russo) since ‘‘Avengers: Endgame’’, and is starred by Tom Holland who featured in the ‘‘Spiderman’’ series.

The duo therefore decide to travel back in time and save their race by crossing swords with the ‘‘evil forces’’. ‘‘Extinct’’ is directed by David Silverman (the director of ‘‘The Simpsons Movie’’ and ‘‘Monsters, Inc.’’ who has been honoured with four Emmy Awards) and the voice cast features Zazie Beetz (who has starred in ‘‘Deadpool 2’’ and ‘‘Geostorm’’).
