Cha Seung-won, Ra Mi-ran, Park Hyung-sik, Baek Yoon-sik Begin Filming 'Family Force'

Actors Cha Seung-won, Ra Mi-ran, Park Hyung-sik, Baek Yoon-sik, and Jang Ryul have come together to start filming the movie 'Family Force.'

According to distributor Showbox, the film 'Family Force' (directed by Won Shin-yeon) has confirmed its main cast and officially began shooting in September.

'Family Force' is a comic action film in which three generations of a Marine Corps family confront a large hospital hostage situation, relying not on combat skills or intelligence, but on their 'family strength.' This is the latest work from director Won Shin-yeon, known for films such as 'Battle of Bongodong,' 'Memories of the Murderer,' and 'The Suspect.'

The cast lineup and character combinations are also noteworthy. Cha Seung-won plays Cheol-du, a former Marine sergeant who lives by the motto, 'Once a Marine, always a Marine.' He becomes embroiled in an unexpected terrorist incident while visiting a hospital where his father is admitted. Ra Mi-ran portrays Ye-bun, Cheol-du's wife and the emotional anchor of the Marine family, joining him in their on-screen marriage.

Park Hyung-sik, returning to the big screen after about seven years, plays Cheol-hoon, the son of Cheol-du and Ye-bun, who gets caught up in the terrorist incident while on leave from the Marine special reconnaissance unit. Baek Yoon-sik takes on the role of Cheol-seong, the most senior member of the Marine family and a decorated veteran, providing stability to the story. Jang Ryul joins the cast as Tae-in, the character behind the mysterious terrorist act at the hospital, adding dramatic tension to the film.

With the start of filming, the director and actors shared their excitement. Director Won Shin-yeon expressed, "Having prepared for a long time, I aim to present a high-quality work with wonderful actors and staff."

Cha Seung-won remarked, "It's a story about families coming together, and it's not an ordinary family, which made the script even more enjoyable to read. I'm excited to work with the talented production team and actors, and I hope to film it in a fun way."

Ra Mi-ran added, "It's an honor to participate in a great project with actors I admire. Although I felt some pressure returning to action acting, the director has provided a clear vision, so I believe I can practice hard and follow along. I hope everyone stays safe during filming."

Park Hyung-sik also shared his enthusiasm, saying, "I was thrilled at the thought of working with such wonderful seniors even before the script reading. I look forward to enjoying the process with the excellent director, seniors, and fellow actors."

Baek Yoon-sik expressed his joy in working with a good director and younger colleagues, stating, "I believe we can showcase a delightful story about a Marine family, and I'm looking forward to it." Jang Ryul echoed this sentiment, saying, "I feel fortunate to be part of this incredible team. I will strive to create a high-quality work through deep consideration and great chemistry."
