'K-Pop Demon Hunters's sequel is officially in the works
Netflix just greenlit a sequel to its biggest hit, KPop Demon Hunters.
The original movie, co-created by Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, blew up with fans, thanks to its catchy soundtrack and two Oscar nominations.
Sony Pictures Animation is back on board for round two.
Release date and other details
Kang and Appelhans are returning as directors, with Kang sharing she's proud to keep building on the Korean characters and stories. This sequel also kicks off their multi-year animation deal with Netflix.
While they're aiming for a 2029 release, it could take longer since animated films need plenty of time.
Meanwhile, the first film is still making waves. It's up for Best Original Song and Best Animated Feature at this year's Oscars after topping Netflix charts worldwide.
