When a film receives overwhelmingly positive reviews and achieves global success, it’s not uncommon for studios to propose a sequel. “K-pop Demon Hunters” is one such film, with fans calling for a second instalment or even a series to continue the story from where it left off.

Due to the overwhelming response, reports now suggest that Netflix may be pushing for both a sequel and a live-action adaptation. While fans have expressed excitement about a potential follow-up, they appear less enthusiastic about the prospect of a live-action version. Here’s what they had to say:

According to a report by TheWrap, Netflix is seriously considering two sequels to “K-pop Demon Hunter”, along with a live-action adaptation. The report suggests that the streaming platform may be planning to expand the original animated film into a full trilogy.

While fans were initially excited about the possibility of sequels, many have voiced opposition to the live-action adaptation. A common sentiment is that animated works do not require live-action remakes, as much of their charm and expressiveness cannot be replicated by real-life actors.

Others suggested that a live-action remake could potentially do more harm than good, citing the mixed reception of some of Disney’s recent projects. Some also pointed out that the film is only a few months old, making a live-action retelling feel entirely unnecessary.

Fans have even speculated that Hollywood is so resistant to the success of animation that it feels compelled to replace it with live-action adaptations. Personally, we’d love to see the sequels come to life, but we believe animated works should be allowed to remain as they are, without the need for live-action reinterpretations.
