Will we get to see actress Han So-hee as a CEO in her 30s?
Han So-hee is emerging as a strong candidate for the lead role in the Korean remake of the Hollywood film 'The Intern,' generating excitement. According to OSEN on the 9th, Han So-hee has been listed as a candidate for the leading role in the Korean version of 'The Intern.' The role she has been offered is the character Jules, played by Anne Hathaway in the original, who is a female CEO in her 30s and a perfectionist leader.
Jules is described as a groundbreaking figure who built a company with 220 employees within a year and a half of its founding, showcasing a fashion sense that adapts to any setting and a relentless drive to maintain energy in the office, caring for employees who work late, and personally handling customer packaging, all while being a passionate CEO.
Han So-hee is generating expectations that she will transform Jules into a more three-dimensional and relatable character, based on her chic visuals and solid acting skills honed through drama and film.
Actor Choi Min-sik has been mentioned for the role of intern Ben, drawing further attention from movie fans. Last year, the production company, Anthology Studio, informed OSEN regarding Choi Min-sik's participation, stating, "Nothing has been confirmed regarding this matter," adding, "It is true that we are actively and positively reviewing the script development stage with Warner Brothers," but emphasized that specific details regarding the director and actors have not been finalized.
The original 'The Intern,' directed by Nancy Meyers in 2015 and starring Anne Hathaway and Robert De Niro, tells a story of intergenerational friendship and growth, receiving love worldwide.
Attention is focused on whether Han So-hee and Choi Min-sik will show a warm chemistry that transcends generational differences, and whether the remake of 'The Intern' will create another box office phenomenon.
