Get ready for an adrenaline-pumping journey into the dark underbelly of Bangkok with Bangkok Breaking: Heaven and Hell. Netflix's first full-scale action film from Thailand follows a group of strangers thrust into a perilous and unexpected fate. Helmed by Bangkok Breakingseries director Kome-Kongkiat Komesiri, renowned for his Khun Pantrilogy, the spin-off film showcases his expertise in crafting grand action scenes that will leave the city - and viewers - shaken to the core.
Bangkok Breaking: Heaven and Hellchronicles the story of rescue worker-turned-delivery food rider Wanchai, recently suspended from work due to a perilous decision he made during a community housing riot. While delivering boba milk tea to a hospital nurse named Meiji, they accidentally become entangled in the kidnapping of Duangkamol, the daughter of the influential tycoon responsible for the evictions that sparked the riots. Trapped inside the dangerous Ruamjai Housing Community, Wanchai must figure out a way to save Duangkamol and escape alive.
Director Kome-Kongkiat Komesiri shares his thoughts on what makes Wanchai a compelling character, explaining that it's his ordinariness that stands out. "Unlike a superhero, he can get hurt or die. He isn't exceptional at fighting, but he has a good heart and is ready to help when problems arise," he says. "Those who jump in to help aren't fearless. Fear makes us human. Wanchai is courageous yet fearful, always contemplating whether to escape or help. This dynamic allowed us to throw various action scenes and incidents at him, testing his resolve for survival. But how does he survive - out of selfishness, by accident, or by finding value in life and realizing that what he does is meaningful and valuable?"
Wanchai is once again portrayed by Weir-Sukollawat Kanaros, reprising his role from the series. He is joined by a strong ensemble cast featuring Mind 4EVE as Meiji, Doo-Sanya Kunakorn as Saisin or Sin, UK-Natthaya Ongsritragul as Duangkamol, Day Thaitanium as Darlie, Mamio-Sutipat Sutiwanit as Jack, Fluke-Teerapat Lohananand as Bank, and many more.
Be prepared for an intense manhunt that will thrill every action movie fan in Bangkok Breaking: Heaven and Hell, premiering on September 26, only on Netflix!
