Im Si-wan flaunts his killer instinct in Mantis
The Straits Times
|October 02, 2025
Set in the universe of Netflix’s breakout South Korean hit film Kill Boksoon (2023), the upcoming spin-off Mantis introduces a slate of new assassins in what promises to be a visual feast of stylised action.
-
Now available on Netflix, the movie centres on skilled killer Han-wool (Im Si-wan), better known by his alias Mantis. He returns from a long hiatus to discover that the coveted top spot among killers is suddenly up for grabs.
He soon finds himself locked in a lethal competition with fellow killers Jae-yi (Park Gyu-young) and Dok-go (Jo Woo-jin), who are all determined to claim the throne.
Im, who starred as antagonist Lee Myung-gi in the second and third seasons of the popular Netflix dystopian thriller show Squid Game (2021 to 2025) and is best known as the lead of hit drama Misaeng: Incomplete Life (2014), recalled how the role first came his way.
