Kim Woo-bin and Lee Hyun-woo headline ensemble for caper flick

Yay, the next big heist movie is shaping up rather nicely. The new caper flick The Professionals has been courting Kim Woo-bin (Heirs) and Lee Hyun-woo (Covertly, Grandly) to lead an ensemble of thieves, and both actors have signed on to star. I think I’m going to enjoy watching them steal things. With a side of bromance, naturally.

The movie comes from the producers behind Friend 2 and director Kim Hong-sun of The Traffickers. It takes place in a harbor and tells the story of a gang of professional thieves who get hired by other criminals for various heists. Kim Woo-bin plays the safecracker who leads the team, and Lee Hyun-woo is the team’s geeeeenius hacker with a cheery personality. Jo Dal-hwan (Age of Feeling) is the wheels, and Go Chang-seok (Good Doctor) has an unspecified role, though I’m pretty sure he won’t be their grease man. Flower halbae Shin Gu (Grandpas Over Flowers) plays the safemaster, who taught Kim Woo-bin everything he knows.

Kim Young-chul (IRIS 2) will be playing the client who hires the gang to steal whatever they’re after, and Im Joo-hwan (Watch Out For Fools) has an interesting role as Kim Young-chul’s right-hand man and enforcer. His character is described as cold and brutal, and will prove to be the team’s biggest enemy. And then of course there’s the law, their other enemy, led by dogged prosecutor Jung Man-shik (also Good Doctor). I hope it’s actually a fun caper with lots and lots of thievin’ because this would be a pretty great cast to waste.

The Professionals starts shooting in March for a release later this year.

Lee Hyun Woo: Geeeeeenius hacker with cheery personality....
I can totally see that... I can work with that.... He's so cute and has such a freaking precious cheery personality in real life (READ: watch his episode of Running Man, alongside "Covertly, Grandly" co-star Kim Soo Hyun, if you haven't already, and you'll know what I mean ^.^)

Can't wait!!

That description does seem to fit him perfectly. He was utterly adorable in Running Man, I loved both of them in that episode.

I'm ashamed to admit i have yet to see lee hyun woo in any projects yet. but everyone seems to be enamored by him that i'd be looking forward to the day i get to see him perform.
Kim Woo Bin is already a must in watching.

Lee Hyun Woo is an excellent actor for such a young age. It surprises me how young he is because his acting is that good. I especially love him in "The Equator Man". :)

And he's such scene stealer. I love the warmth he bring in his character, even as a trained dogged soldier in secretly grandly.

I suspect those 4 veteran actors will always be Flower Grandpas to me. Glad to see a Grandpa together with Woo-bin. Sounds fun.

We now need a 'geeeeenius' tag. With exactly 5 'e's, no more and no less. How else could anyone interested in geeeeenius characters find these articles easily? I mean, it's not like the characters are a dime a dozen and in maybe half the dramas ever. ;D
