Oscar Star Removed From Project Due To Police Probe

Despite the interruption, a press release from the studio claims that No Way Out will continue production on its normal schedule, while actively looking for a replacement to take on Lee Sun-Kyun’s role. While fans will surely be upset to hear of Lee Sun-Kyun’s absence in the upcoming project, the leading man currently has a host of films awaiting theatrical release, meaning the investigation has not yet put a massive dent in the actor’s big screen presence.

Titles starring Lee Sun-Kyun set to arrive in theaters soon include Land of Heaven, which sees Sun-Kyun portraying a Korean soldier caught in the throes of a significant modern military event, and Project Silence, which focusses on a number of survivors trapped on a collapsing bridge.
