Following the global success of KPop Demon Hunters, fans can get ready to return to its vibrant, music-fueled universe: a sequel is officially in the works.
Bloomberg and Variety report that Netflix and Sony Pictures have signed a production deal for the follow-up, with a tentative release set for 2029.

The original film captured worldwide attention, blending dynamic animation with the energy of K-pop culture. Speculation about a sequel has been building for months. In a recent BBC interview, director Meggie Kang hinted at the franchise’s untapped potential, saying, “There’s definitely more to explore with these characters. It’s a story that could naturally become a sequel, and it’s something both we and the fans would be excited to see.”
With Netflix and Sony Pictures on board, fans have reason to be excited. The sequel promises to expand the colorful, high-energy world of KPop Demon Hunters, delivering more action, music, and storylines that captivated audiences around the globe.
