Trailer For The English-Language Remake of High-Stakes Thriller BAD GENIUS
Vertical has released the trailer for Bad Genius, which is an English-language remake of the hit Thai film of the same name from 2017.
The movie is described as a “high-stakes, high-octane thriller about a diverse group of students who team up to fight a system of injustice and inequity and take down the rigged academic institutions around them.”
This film tells a complex story about cheating on exams and the students who find themselves caught up in the scheme.
The story centers on Genius scholarship student Lynn Kang who starts a cheating operation at her elite private school to fund her college dreams, giving her an opportunity to challenge the American education system, and her morals.
The movie stars Callina Liang (Presence), Jabari Banks, Taylor Hickson, Sarah-Jane Redmond, Adam Beauchesne, Tina Grant, with Benedict Wong. I haven’t seen the original movie, but this movie looks really good!
The Bad Genius remake is directed by J.C. Lee and will be released in select theaters starting October 11th, 2024.
