The Walking Dead’s Steven Yeun Joins Bong Joon-Ho’s Okja
Photo by Frazer Harrison/GettyBong Joon-Ho’s forthcoming sci-fi film Okja has assembled one hell of a cast. The film, which began principal photography just yesterday, stars Tilda Swinton, Jake Gyllenhaal, Paul Dano and now Steven Yeun, best known for portraying Glenn Rhee on AMC’s juggernaut zombie drama The Walking Dead.
Okja is the latest effort from Joon-Ho, the acclaimed filmmaker who recently wrote and directed the stellar sci-fi thriller Snowpiercer. Joon-Ho’s new project is the story of a young girl named Mija (Seohyun An) who befriends Okja, a genetically engineered animal. When the creature grows to a massive size, his powerful corporate creators reclaim him, forcing a now-teenaged Mija to undertake a rescue mission. “With Okja I want to show the beauty that can exist between man and animal, and also the horror between them,” Joon-Ho said in a statement.
