By William Schwartz | Published on
According to news reports released on January 21st, actor Kim Eui-sung has appeared at filming locations for the upcoming science fiction drama "Black Knight" which is set to air on Netflix later this year. As this is not an official report, there are no details as to what character he may be playing. Little is known about "Black Knight" as of yet aside from the setting- a polluted future world where Kim Woo-bin will play the leading role as a legendary delivery driver.

"Black Knight" will be Kim Woo-bin's comeback project following a six year absence due to his diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Kim Eui-sung would be a logical co-star for many reasons. He's known Kim Woo-bin for quite some time, appearing as the younger man's father in the 2015 film "Twenty" earlier in his career. Both actors are also appearing in the film "Alienoid" which is also expected to release later this year.
Lastly, Kim Eui-sung has a major role in the currently screening "Special Delivery" which also deals with an infamous delivery driver. However, that movie takes place in a contemporary setting rather than a futuristic one. Kim Eui-sung also had a prominent appearance in the popular vehicular themed television drama "Taxi Driver" from last year.
