"Ready to Step Into Forbidden Territory"
Actress Song Hye-kyo takes on the role of a nun breaking taboos, delivering a powerful performance as an exorcist. The production team of the film "Black Nuns" (Director Kwon Hyuk-jae) unveiled the character video and poster on the 9th.
Yoonia (played by Song Hye-kyo) struggles to save Hee-joon (played by Moon Woo-jin). She firmly declares, "Whether it's a demon or a hallucination, as long as the boy survives, nothing else matters."
In front of the priests, she boldly states, "Your words are really getting on my nerves," showing a defiant and provocative side. She stands out as a daring nun, breaking the mold of the conventional priest figure seen until now.
Her chemistry with Michaela (played by Jeon Yeo-bin) is also noteworthy. The two characters meet through curiosity and suspicion, hinting at delicate emotional exchanges between them.
Paolo (played by Lee Jin-wook) adds tension to the story. He stands in sharp conflict with the two nuns, trying to save the boy in his own unique way.
The highlight of the film is the exorcism scene. The actors' performances shine in this intense sequence. Yoonia recites prayers, drenched in sweat, while Hee-joon convincingly portrays a boy possessed by an evil spirit.
The poster conveys a heavy charisma, introducing a nun breaking taboos, a nun hiding secrets, a priest trusting science, and a tormented possessed boy. It hints at the strong characters driving the story.
Black Nuns is the second installment following the 2015 film "The Priests" (Director Jang Jae-hyun). The film tells the story of individuals who risk everything by performing forbidden rituals to save a boy possessed by a powerful evil spirit.
The movie is produced by Zip Cinema, known for works like "The Priests," "Default," "Master," and "Broker." It is set to be released on the 24th.
