JAKARTA - Jin dan Jun yang dikenal sebagai serial televisi pada akhir 1990-an hingga awal 2000-an kini hadir dalam bentuk film layar. Berbeda dari versi sesinya, film Jin dan Jun membawa isu-isu yang lebih relevan.

By maintaining the main character, Jun and his jinn, Anggy Umbara as the director said bullying and friendship were several issues raised in the film produced by MVP Pictures.

"The issue that you want to raise is bullying. The second is friendship, anyone can be friends. The third is gratitude. We invite friends to reflect," said Anggy Umbara during a press conference at Epicentrum, South Jakarta on Friday, April 14.

That way, Jin and Jun this time not only invite viewers to reminisce. Those who have never watched the television series version of Jin and Jun have also been invited to enjoy the humorousness presented through communication between Jun and his jins.

The changes made, said Amrit Punjabi as co-producer, were made to make Jin and Jun more relevant to Indonesian film lovers. He also hopes that the decisions made can be accepted by the audience.

"What's important is that we work as hard as possible. Now we just hope that the audience likes it. We hope that of course this film will become a box office," said Amrit.

To give a more contemporary impression, Jin and Jun also use Computer-Generalized Imagery (CGI) for several scenes. After the shooting process last August 2022, Anggy Umbara said that the editing and CGI process did not take long.

The film Jin dan Jun yang akan tayang pada 19 April dibintangi oleh Rey Bong sebagai Jun dan Dwi Sasono sebagai Jin. Selein itu juga ada beberapa nama lain, seperti Sarah Felicia, Clay Gribble, Astri Nurdin, wronga Karamoy, Alif Rivelino, Cornelio Sunny, Indra Aksa dan Arif Didu.
