Warning! Spoilers ahead for Bugonia.
At the end of Save the Green Planet! the twisted 2003 Korean sci-fi black comedy directed by Jang Joon-hwan, the CEO kidnapped by a conspiracy theorist who believes him to be an alien in disguise is revealed to be... an alien in disguise. Escaping from his captor, the CEO returns to his alien spaceship and orders the destruction of Earth, having become disgusted with the “failed experiment” that is humanity. It’s a bleak ending that seems ripe to be changed for the Hollywood remake of the film. But with the Weird Wave King Yorgos Lanthimos helming the remake, the bizarre alien twist and its resulting bleak ending was always going to remain.
