Production
Development
According to Park Hoon-jung, who is the director and writer of The Tyrant, that the series is a story on a larger scale compared to the smaller narrative structures of The Childe (2023). It involves the emergence of multiple nations and highly skilled individuals. It shares a worldview to The Witch franchise,[5] and depict story from the opposite side's perspective. The Tyrant will be a film that has elements of science fiction and fantasy.[24][25][26]
Gooldmoon Pictures together with Studio&NEW and Acemaker Movieworks collaborated on the production of the series.[27][28] The production team includes individuals who have a long-standing working relationship with director Park. Martial arts director Kim Jung-min, who previously worked on 'The Witch' series, cinematographer Kim Young-ho, who collaborated on 'The Witch', 'Night in Paradise', and 'VIP', and music director Mowg joined forces.[29]
Later, Park expressed his thoughts on the release of Disney+'s original series, saying, "I thought Disney+ was the best platform to present The Tyrant because it respects the original expression of the work and shows bold steps."[30]
Casting
On October 19, 2023, S.A.L.T. Entertainment [ko]'s representative disclosed to the press that Kim Seon-ho was confirmed to star in the film Tyrant.[31] Simultaneously, an industry insider informed the press that Cha Seung-won would play the lead role in the film. YG Entertainment's representative confirmed that Cha had received an offer to appear and was positively considering it.[32] In November 23 of the same year, Kim Kang-woo confirmed his appearance in Tyrant and reunited with director Park Hoon-jung and Kim Seon-ho, after their prior collaboration in The Childe.[33]
Acemaker Movieworks made an announcement on January 9, 2023, confirming the casting of three actors for the film.[34] Kim S. character, Director Choi, undergoes a 180-degree transformation from his previous role as Gwigongja in The Childe.[35] The media has taken notice of Kim S.'s commitment to lose weight for his character in the new movie, which has increased excitement and anticipation for this upcoming role.[36]
Filming
On December 28, 2022, it was reported that the principal photography of The Tyrant would begin in January 2023. Originally the plan was to start filming at the end of December, but it was delayed due to certain circumstances.[37] On January 9, 2023, the film distributor, Acemaker Movieworks, officially announced the start date of filming as January 2, 2023.[34]
Filming took place in Busan from January to February 2023.[38] In February, filming was taking place at Doma-keun market in Daejeon.[39] The remaining filming mostly occurred in Jeju for a duration of four months.[40] The Jeju Indoor Film Studio was one of the locations used for filming thanks to an agreement between the film production company and the Jeju Film and Cultural Industry Promotion Agency. This collaboration allowed the film to benefit from the "Jeju Location Attraction Support Project," which provides incentives, location scouting, and administrative support to encourage local film and drama production companies to choose Jeju as their filming destination.[41]
The series was also selected for the "2023 Chungnam Location Incentive Support Project" by the Chungnam Information and Culture Industry Promotion Agency. The support made it possible for The Tyrant's filming crews to film road action scenes in February 2023 with the active cooperation of Buyeo County Office and Gongju Hall Road Division.[42]
Release
At the end of the year 2023, it was reported that The Tyrant is part of the film distributor Ace Maker Movie Works' 2024 lineup.[43] In early 2024, it was also mentioned as a film to be released that year.[44]The Tyrant has secured pre-sales in various regions and platforms, including Germany (Splendid), Taiwan (MovieCloud), Southeast Asia (Purple Plan), Thailand (Neramitnung Film), CIS (Paradise Group), and in-flight entertainment (Eagle).[45]
A statement from a representative of the series informed the press that The Tyrant was originally created with theater release in mind, but after filming was completed, it was completed as a four-part series during the editing process. The decision to expand it was made to effectively showcase the individual charm of each character and highlight the directorial expertise of Park Hoon-jung. It was announced as part of Disney+ 2024 lineup on February 19[46][47] and is set to premiere worldwide on August 14, 2024.[48] Disney+ dropped a trailer for the upcoming series on July 12.[49][50][51]
The Tyrant was revealed to fans in advance through a 'Top Secret Premiere Screening' that was screened at Megabox COEX at 18:50 (KST) on August 9. After the screening, a GV with the main cast of the series including actors Cha Seung-won, Kim Seon-ho, Kim Kang-woo, and Jo Yoon-soo was held. On the same day at 19:00 (KST), the 'Tyrant Sample Chasing Competition' fan event held on the 5th floor of the Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas.[52]
Carmen Chin of NME gave The Tyrant a four out of five rating and said that, "on the face of it, The Tyrant is a tried and true (if a bit tired) espionage thriller through and through. Yet, creator Park Hoon-jung elevates the material with a striking visual and narrative style, while also managing to surprise with twists that have novel substance and stakes. Everything is executed with impressive precision by someone who clearly loves what they do."[54]
Pierce Conran of the South China Morning Post gave it two out of five stars, saying, "This exceptionally confusing, although very stylish show ... [is] similar to the lamentable sequel The Witch: Part 2. The Other One, another baffling parade of people bludgeoning each other with little rhyme or reason."[55]
As reported by Walt Disney Company Korea, The Tyrant claimed the top spot as the most-watched content on Disney+ Korea for twelve consecutive days from its release on August 14 until the 25th.[56] It ranked 1st in the overall rankings on Kinolights, a domestic OTT search and recommendation platform, on release day. It ranked 2nd in the overall Disney+ content rankings on FlixPatrol, a content viewing ranking site on OTT platforms around the world, as of August 15,[57][58][59] and held the number 1 spot in FlixPatrol's overall ranking of Disney+ Korean content for 24 consecutive days.[60]
Overseas, it ranked first in the Disney+ comprehensive rankings on FlixPatrol in Hong Kong and placed in the top five in Taiwan and Singapore in its first week.[61][62][57][58][59] Until the 4th week, the movie ranked 5th in Hong Kong and 3rd in Taiwan.
