Film District, via CBM, has released a greenband trailer for Spike Lee’s adaptation of the manga comic Oldboy, previously brought brilliantly to life by Park Chan-wook.

The film follows a man who, after being kidnapped and held captive for 20 years with no explanation, is suddenly set free and seeks revenge on his captors.

Josh Brolin is joined by Sharlto Copley and Elizabeth Olsen in the film that no-one asked for, although in fairness Spike Lee is a good director so this has merit.

Oldboy is out in the US on October 25th, and in Ireland on December 6th.
