MUBI has sent over the new UK trailer and artwork for BAFTA Award-winner Park Chan-wook’s sharp, darkly comic thriller No Other Choice. The film will be released in cinemas across the UK and Ireland on 23 January 2026.
The story follows a middle-aged man named Man-su who embarks on a determined job-hunt after being unexpectedly fired from the paper company that he worked for 25 years. “If there is no opening for me, I’ll just have to get hired by creating one. I have no other choice.”
