SINGAPORE – Blackpink member Lisa is set to act in her first major movie, action flick Tygo.
Spun off from the Extraction films (2020 and 2023), it also stars South Korea-born actors Don Lee (Train To Busan, 2016) and Lee Jin-wook (Squid Game, 2024 to 2025).
Lisa says in a press statement: “I’m so honoured to be a part of this project and grateful for the opportunity to work alongside such incredible actors.”
The 28-year-old made her acting debut in the third season of HBO series The White Lotus Season in 2025. She adds: “Being in an action film has always been a dream of mine, and for my first movie role to be in such an exciting action film is a dream come true.”
The first Extraction film starred Australian actor Chris Hemsworth as a mercenary hired to rescue the kidnapped son of an Indian crime lord in Bangladesh.
Tygo centres on a former child soldier-turned-mercenary who gets revenge on Korea’s underworld after a mission goes awry.
Lee, who plays the titular character, says in a press statement: “Tygo brings a distinctly Korean identity into the global Extraction universe.
The 54-year-old adds: “We can’t wait to unleash its explosive energy on audiences worldwide.”
Lisa says that it has always been her dream to act in an action film.
