by

The sealing of the honeymoon isn’t far off now! It appears that those responsible for safeguarding the sacred realm are in negotiations to rekindle the world of KPop Demon Hunters with a sequel. As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Sony Pictures and Netflix have confirmed the revival of the animated film, with discussions ongoing before reaching an agreement. This aligns with earlier reports suggesting two sequels and a live-action adaptation were in development for the popular story that has captured the globe this year.

Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters Shatters Records, Boasts Impressive Return
In a stunning turn of events, Netflix announced that their film KPop Demon Hunters has broken all records, becoming the streaming giant’s most-watched movie to date. This milestone was reached in less than 10 weeks, dethroning Red Notice from its previous top spot. With over 236 million views under its belt, the film is now targeting a staggering 300 million views in the near future, aiming to establish an unparalleled benchmark.

The film’s continued triumph on both OTT platforms and in theaters, with its sing-along version selling out cinemas nationwide, has warranted a second showing. Remarkably, it holds the title of the most-watched English-language film ever on the streaming service, despite lacking a renowned director or an impressive ensemble cast. In stark contrast, Squid Game boasts popular stars like Lee Byung Hun, Ahn Hyo Seop, and Arden Cho, but its catchy tunes have been dominating music charts for weeks, stealing the limelight.

The follow-up is likely imminent, as discussions between Sony Pictures and Netflix are underway. It appears that the story will soon grace our screens once more!
