Production News

The Seoul city government this week underlined plans to produce DMZ Project, a US-South Korean action thriller that is set in the Demilitarised zone that separates the two Koreas.

According to Seoul city officials, DMZ Project centres on a US spy satellite that crashes in the zone. International soldiers are sent to the area to retrieve the satellite and discover something deadlier than North Korean soldiers there.

The project is set up as a co-venture between CJ E&M Corp 씨제이이앤엠 주식회사 and Di Bonaventura Pictures which is run by Lorenzo DI BONAVENTURA, who produced Transformers and GI Joe and is also set to produce KIM Jee-woon 김지운 | 金知雲's English-language debut The Last Stand with Arnold SCHWARZENEGGER. Warner Bros is set as the worldwide distributor.

The project first surfaced in February with Jeremy Passmore and Andre Fabrizio as scriptwriters. CJ this week confirmed the project and described it as "still in development."
