Colony marks Yeon’s return to the zombie thriller genre, following survivors trapped in a quarantined building during an infection outbreak, battling ruthless infected beings.
Today, the film has been rated R by the MPA for “bloody violent content and some language.”
The film follows Professor Se-jeong as she is thrust into a terrifying hellscape when a mutating virus is unleashed during a biotech conference, forcing authorities to seal the facility to contain the outbreak. Unable to escape, Se-jeong and a group of survivors must fight to stay alive as the infected undergo horrific transformations and threaten to spread the virus.
The film stars Jun Ji-hyun, Koo Kyo-hwan, and Ji Chang-wook, bringing together a high-profile cast for what is expected to be an intense, character-driven survival story.
Well Go USA plans to release it in theaters here in the States on August 28, 2026.
