Lights, camera, Thailand—GDH just dropped the mic on the future of Thai cinema! On February 20, 2025, the powerhouse studio behind Bad Genius and The Medium staged a glitzy press event in Bangkok, unveiling their 2025 film slate—and it’s a knockout punch of sequels, star power, and celluloid magic. With a Bad Genius 2 tease leading the charge, Thai cinephiles are screaming, social media’s ablaze, and the Land of Smiles is ready to shine on the global screen. Pop the popcorn—this is GDH’s year to slay!
The ballroom at Siam Kempinski sparkled like a Thai Oscar night—red carpets, golden lights, and a who’s-who of GDH royalty. Studio head Jina Osothsilp took the stage, all sleek suit and megawatt grin, declaring, “2025’s our boldest yet—stories that thrill, laugh, and haunt.” Then came the big reveal: a sizzle reel that had the crowd roaring. First up? Bad Genius 2, the sequel to 2017’s heist masterpiece. The teaser flashed—Chutimon Chuengcharoensukying’s Lynn, sharper than ever, plotting a new scam across neon-lit Bangkok. “She’s back, and she’s unbeatable,” Jina teased, as #BadGenius2 trended by noon.
The slate’s a buffet of Thai flair. Next: Home Sweet Hell, a horror-comedy with Pee Mak’s Mario Maurer as a hapless dad in a haunted condo—think jump scares with a side of giggles. Then, Love in the Rain 2, reuniting One Day’s Chantavit Dhanasevi and Nittha Jirayungyurn for a soggy, swoony sequel. A curveball? The Elephant Whisperer, a rural drama with The Tin Mine’s Petchtai Wongkamlao as a mahout chasing redemption—tears guaranteed. “We’re mixing heart and hustle,” Jina beamed, promising 10 films total, five unveiled today.
Bangkok’s buzzing like a film fest. Siam Paragon’s GDH store looped the reel all afternoon, while fans swapped theories outside—Bad Genius 2 in LA? A cameo from Pat Boonnitipat, the original’s director? “Lynn’s my hero—I need this now,” gushed a teen clutching a Brother of the Year ticket stub. Online, the hype’s viral—X posts hit 1M with #GDH2025, fan edits pairing Mario with ghosts, and TikTokers recreating Lynn’s iconic pencil-tap. “Thai cinema’s eating,” raved a film blog, predicting box-office gold.
GDH’s got the cred to back it. Since 2016, they’ve churned hits—Bad Genius snagged $42M worldwide, The Medium spooked Sundance. Today’s slate doubles down: bigger budgets, global eyes (think Netflix deals), and a Thai soul that’s unbeatable. “We’re telling our stories, our way,” said producer Vanridee Pongsittisak, hinting at a Bad Genius universe—spinoffs, maybe? Stars shone bright—Chutimon, radiant in red, told press, “Lynn’s grown up; so have we.” Mario flexed, “I’m ready to scare and charm!”
The streets lit up post-event. Chatuchak vendors hawked GDH tees, while cineplexes like Major Cineplex prepped 2025 posters—Bad Genius 2’s slated for fall, Home Sweet Hell by Songkran. “It’s our Avengers year,” joked a fan on IG, where GDH’s reel racked 3M views by dusk. Even rivals saluted—GMM’s CEO tweeted, “Game on, GDH!” Critics? Drooling. “Thailand’s stealing the spotlight,” glowed Variety’s Asia desk, eyeing festival buzz.
As February 20, 2025, dips into Bangkok’s golden haze, GDH’s slate isn’t just a lineup—it’s a revolution. From Lynn’s scams to Mario’s haunts, Thailand’s cinema kings are betting big, and fans are all in. 2025’s screen’s set—GDH’s ready to roll the credits on a year of Thai triumphs. Lights down, anticipation up—bring it on!
