Disney+ has unveiled the casting lineup for the original series “Vigilante” (directed by Choi Jeong Yeol).
“Vigilante” is an action thriller based on a webtoon of the same name. It tells the story of a police academy student directly judging criminals who evaded the law.
In “Vigilante”, Nam Joo Hyuk plays Kim Ji Yong, a police academy student who lost his mother at the hand of a local gangster when he was young and thus becomes the Vigilante. This character will present polar opposite images, going back and forth between a prospective police officer and a dark hero.
Meanwhile, Yoo Ji Tae takes on the role of Cho Heon, head of the investigation team at the Metropolitan Investigation Unit who pursues Vigilante. He puts the brakes on private sanctions with an extraordinary sense of duty, and shows excellent reasoning skills in this process.
Lee Joon Hyuk plays Cho Kang Ok, the vice chairman of DK Group and a character who worships Vigilante. He goes out of his way to support Vigilante at any cost.
Finally, Kim So Jin plays the reporter Choi Mi Ryeo, who first introduces Vigilante to the world. She has a belief in journalism and continues her news coverage activities persistently.
It is known that director Choi Jeong Yeol, who previously challenged feature films through “One Way Trip” and “Start-Up”, will be in charge of “Vigilante”. He plans to increase the work’s completeness with delicate directing skills.
Meanwhile, “Vigilante” will be broadcast on Disney+ in the second half of this year. The exact broadcast date will be revealed later.
