Harmony Korine is set to make his animated debut with The Trap.
The upcoming feature film will be an animated take on a live-action project that was initially set to star Jamie Foxx and Benecio del Toro. As per Variety, The Trap is billed as the hip-hop counterpart of the Japanese manga and decorated Korean film Oldboy, “following an ex-con newly released from prison and deadset on revenge once he learns that his one-time accomplice has become a top-selling rapper.”
Korine and his multimedia design collective EDGLRD are currently in talks with production partners in Japan for the film. Additional information, such as a cast and release date, are yet to be announced.
