Netflix’s popular animated film, “KPop Demon Hunters,” continues to capture the hearts of children aged 3 to 13, and there’s even more to look forward to! Fans of the film can rejoice as the women who lend their voices to the fictional K-pop band HUNTR/X will be making a special appearance at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Scheduled for November 27, the parade kicks off at 8:30 a.m. across all time zones and will be broadcast live on NBC and Peacock.
In exciting news for fans, Variety reports that Netflix and Sony have sealed a deal for a sequel to “KPop Demon Hunters,” expected to hit screens in 2029. Maggie Kang, the co-director of the film, shared insights about the exciting potential for backstory development. “We’ve set up so much for potential backstory. Obviously, there’s a lot of questions that are left unanswered and areas that are not explored,” she mentioned in an interview, emphasizing that the original movie’s limited runtime of 85 minutes left many stories untold.
Anticipation is already building around how the characters Rumi, Mira, and Zoey will delve into themes like generational trauma in the forthcoming installment. While fans may have to wait four years for the sequel, the excitement surrounding both the parade appearance and the film’s future ensures that “KPop Demon Hunters” will remain a beloved topic for the foreseeable future.
