Release of Tazza: Song of Beelzebub film

Overview

The crime thriller ‘Tazza: Song of Beelzebub’ is scheduled for release on September 23, marking the conclusion of a 20-year film series. Directed by Choi Kook-hee and based on the manhwa by Heo Young-man, the film follows a revenge plot between former friends Jang Tae-young and Park Tae-young within the global gambling and online casino industry.

In this final installment, the narrative focuses on Jang Tae-young (played by Byun Yo-han), who loses everything following a betrayal by Park Tae-young (played by Noh Jae-won) during a metaverse casino venture. Unlike previous entries that emphasized gambling techniques, this film prioritizes psychological tension and the deteriorating relationship between the protagonists. Director Choi Kook-hee noted the film is intended as entertainment for adult audiences due to its mature themes.

To ensure authenticity, the cast underwent extensive preparation. Byun Yo-han studied professional gamblers' patterns, trained in hold'em hand techniques, and underwent physical training that included losing over 10kg. The ensemble cast also features Jo Woo-jin, Yoon Kyung-ho, and rapper Swings, who is making his acting debut. The production utilized international locations, including Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
