As associate of Henney told TV Report on December 26th, "Henney has been cast in a stylish role for famous director Lee Myung-se's new film" and "He will appear as a terrorist that clashes with Sol Kyung-gu over secret information, showing a side of himself we've never seen before".

The character's name was originally Julian, but it has been changed to a different one. Produced by CJ E&M, "Mr.K" has a blockbuster budget of KRW70 billion and will start shooting in March 2012.

Henney starred in the Korean film "My Father" four years ago and did not do any film work until six months ago, in the film "Papa - Movie". Henney has appeared in the Hollywood film "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" and recently filmed the romantic melodrama "Shanghai Calling".
