Here\u2019s everything we know about the KPop Demon Hunters sequel that is actually, 100 percent, for real happening.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"1\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">The animated film has been on an incredible run since it debuted in June of 2025. There\u2019s a huge fandom of all ages. \u201cGolden\u201d made it to number one on the Billboard Global 200. The cast performed on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and the Macy\u2019s Thanksgiving Day Parade.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"2\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">The film has already won at the Critics Choice Awards, Grammys, and Golden Globes. It\u2019s nominated for two Academy Awards and (*fingers crossed*) most likely won\u2019t go home empty. It\u2019s getting a <a rel=\"noopener nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2026\/film\/news\/kpop-demon-hunters-frankenstein-criterion-collection-1236670172\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-vars-ga-outbound-link=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2026\/film\/news\/kpop-demon-hunters-frankenstein-criterion-collection-1236670172\/\" data-vars-ga-ux-element=\"Hyperlink\" data-vars-ga-call-to-action=\"Criterion Collection DVD and blu-ray release\" data-node-id=\"2.1\" class=\"body-link css-ohbdae emevuu60\">Criterion Collection DVD and blu-ray release<\/a>. KPop Demon Hunters is easily the most popular Netflix movie, like, ever. You\u2019d be foolish not to have a sequel in the works.<\/p>\n<p>Are we really getting a KPop Demon Hunters sequel?<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"6\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Yes, really! According to Netflix\u2019s Tudum, <a rel=\"noopener nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/tudum\/articles\/kpop-demon-hunters-sequel\" target=\"_blank\" data-vars-ga-outbound-link=\"https:\/\/www.netflix.com\/tudum\/articles\/kpop-demon-hunters-sequel\" data-vars-ga-ux-element=\"Hyperlink\" data-vars-ga-call-to-action=\"KPop Demon Hunters Is Officially Entering Its Sequel Era\" data-node-id=\"6.1\" class=\"body-link css-ohbdae emevuu60\">KPop Demon Hunters Is Officially Entering Its Sequel Era<\/a>. At least two key members of the creative team are back: co-directors Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans. No word yet on who will write the new songs.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"7\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">\u201cI feel immense pride as a Korean filmmaker that the audience wants more from this Korean story and our Korean characters,\u201d Kang told Tudum. \u201cThere\u2019s so much more to this world we have built, and I\u2019m excited to show you. This is only the beginning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What will the KPop Demon Hunters sequel be about?<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"9\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Do we think there will be new demons? New love interests? More songs, obviously.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"10\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Appelhans told Tudum that \u201cthese characters are like family to us, their world has become our second home. We\u2019re excited to write their next chapter, challenge them, and watch them evolve \u2014 and continue pushing the boundaries of how music, animation, and story can come together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Who is in the KPop Demon Hunters sequel\u2019s cast?<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"12\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">We can assume that Arden Cho, Ejae, May Hong, Audrey Nuna, Ji-young Yoo, and Rei Ami will be back as the speaking and singing voices of HUNTR\/X\u2019s core girl group trio, respectively. I also couldn\u2019t imagine the film without Ken Jeong as the band\u2019s manager Bobby. As for the Saja Boys, we may have to wait and see! Y\u2019all remember how the movie ended, right? The same goes for Lee Byung-hun as Gwi-Wa, the demon king. Hopefully they\u2019ll be joined by new characters as well. We will have to wait and see.<\/p>\n<p>When will the KPop Demon Hunters sequel be released?<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"14\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">This is the kicker. Animated movies do take a really long time to make. Unless Netflix planned for a sequel months ago and this has been under wraps (which is entirely possible, but I obviously can\u2019t prove it) it is probably going to be a few years. When was the last time an animated musical was this popular. Frozen, right? There were five years between that movie and Frozen 2. There were also five years between Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and its first sequel.<\/p>\n<p data-journey-content=\"true\" data-node-id=\"15\" class=\"css-6wxqfj emevuu60\">Let\u2019s hope they figure out how to speed it up! I\u2019m not trying to wait until 2030 for KPop Demon Hunters 2, are you? Unfortunately, according to <a rel=\"noopener nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/movies\/movie-features\/sony-kpop-demon-hunters-2-spider-verse-pressure-3-goat-1236503016\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-vars-ga-outbound-link=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/movies\/movie-features\/sony-kpop-demon-hunters-2-spider-verse-pressure-3-goat-1236503016\/\" data-vars-ga-ux-element=\"Hyperlink\" data-vars-ga-call-to-action=\"The Hollywood Reporter\" data-node-id=\"15.3\" class=\"body-link css-ohbdae emevuu60\">The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>, that is likely. Back to playing \u201cTakedown\u201d and \u201cSoda Pop\u201d on repeat, y\u2019all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"You may still be listening to the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack on repeat, but the folks at Netflix&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":654748,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[255684,6543,277635,1201,171,2875,975,256927,277634,277636,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-654747","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-collection-netflix","9":"tag-content-type-news-explainer","10":"tag-contentid-3d436d28-884a-44c4-a2a7-d8ca1fa80f83","11":"tag-displaytype-standard-article","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-locale-us","14":"tag-music","15":"tag-read_time-3","16":"tag-shorttitle-your-guide-to-the-kpop-demon-hunters-sequel","17":"tag-subsection-movies","18":"tag-united-states","19":"tag-unitedstates","20":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116226817268987007","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/654747","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=654747"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/654747\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/654748"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=654747"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=654747"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=654747"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
