'Oldboy'FROM SPLASH PAGE: It's been several months since we last heard about Steven Spielberg's plans to adapt the popular manga "Oldboy" into a live-action film starring Will Smith, but fans of both the manga and the original live-action adaptation released in 2003 have been buzzing about whether the edgy story will be softened for American audiences.

With the film and the original manga well-known for their disturbing themes -- a crucial plot point involves incest -- and graphic violence, is the typically family-friendly Spielberg up to the task of staying true to the dark, violent nature of the story?

"It's the thing that Steven was attracted to," Smith told MTV News. "We're working from the comic and we haven't done anything other than talk about it. So we'll see what happens, but he's not going to do anything that would be less than stunning."

If you haven't seen Park's "Oldboy," be prepared for a film that is nothing like Spielberg or Smith have ever made before. It follows a man named Dae-Su, who is locked in a hotel room for 15 years without having a good reason why. Once released, he goes on a path of vengance, tracing the identity of his captors through a strange maze of conspiracy. It's bloody, it's brutal, and yet packs quite an emotional punch. Read more...
