Kpop Demon Hunters is one of the most amazing animated films on Netflix that has garnered widespread global recognition, thanks to its visually appealing settings, amazing characters, and over-the-top story. After becoming a global success and leaving the fandom with an ambiguous ending, it’s obvious that every viewer wants to know if Kpop Demon Hunters 2 is happening.
Has KPop Demon Hunters 2 Been Confirmed?
Yes, Kpop Demon Hunters 2 has been greenlit by Sony Pictures Animation and Netflix. However, the sequel is not expected to release before 2030. Maggie Kang’s direction made the first movie a success, so she is the one to lead the sequel as well. The central cast and characters will make a comeback in the anticipated project, too. Initially, some reports suggested that the film would hit the screens in 2029, but in a recent conversation with THR, Sony Pictures Animation presidents hinted that the release would go beyond the expected time frame.
The sequel is indeed confirmed, and we also know that it is in the development process. However, the animated movie featuring such vibrant, outstanding animation and character designs takes years of hard work to reach the screen. So, we shouldn’t expect it to get released before 2030.
Now, if we talk about the story, Kpop Demon Hunters have some untouched territories that the curious fandom deserves to get. One of the most important aspects is Rumi’s true heritage, which the first film didn’t extensively explore. Also, the final moments of the 2025 movie made it clear that the sequel will see some stronger enemies emerge and expand the story’s universe.
However, if the creators can maintain the elements that made the first film a success while also adding new elements that strengthen the story, you can expect the KPop Demon Hunter 2 to be even bigger and more impactful than the original.
