What led two once-loyal friends to face each other as enemies on the battlefield? A first look at Uprising has been unveiled today with the release of its teaser poster and trailer. Directed by Kim Sang-man and produced by the renowned Park Chan-wook, who co-wrote the film with Shin Chul, Uprising offers a compelling narrative set against the chaos of war. The film explores the lives of two childhood friends turned adversaries and is set to premiere on October 11.

Uprising delves into themes of friendship, loyalty, and betrayal against the backdrop of societal class differences and war. The teaser begins with young Cheon-yeong and Jong-ryeo sharing a heartfelt friendship despite their differing social statuses - one a master, the other a slave. Cheon-yeong hopes to break free from servitude and reclaim his status, but their friendship deteriorates as Jong-ryeo's family dismisses their pledge to free him. The chaos escalates with the onset of war, turning the friends into enemies. Cheon-yeong joins the militia, earning the fearsome nickname the blue-robed god for his unmatched swordsmanship, while Jong-ryeo becomes a high-ranking military officer filled with rage towards Cheon-yeong.

The poster captures the intense stare-down between Cheon-yeong and Jong-ryeo, each holding swords and dressed in contrasting blue and red outfits that symbolize their divergent fates. Set against the backdrop of civil unrest and war, the image hints at the fierce clash and turmoil to come, leaving fans eager to see how these characters will navigate their destinies amidst the chaos. Both men face intense action and deep emotional conflict, with Cheon-yeong played by Gang Dong-won and Jong-ryeo by Park Jeong-min. Joining the two is a stellar cast including Kim Shin-rock as Beom-dong, Jin Sun-kyu as General Kim Ja-ryeong, Jung Sung-il as Genshin with Cha Seung-won as King Seonjo. As the world crumbles around them, each character must navigate their own path through the chaos, fighting against their fate.

Uprising premieres on October 11, only on Netflix.
