Is ‘KPop Demon Hunters 2’ Confirmed? Everything We Know
KPop Demon Hunters, the animated Sony movie about a fictional K-pop girl group who saves the world, was a surprise hit for Netflix last month. Since its release on June 20, KPop Demon Hunters has been on the streamer’s Top 10 Trending Movies list, and this week the film nabbed the No. 1 slot, overturning The Old Guard 2. So, naturally, the next logical question for Netflix is: When is the KPop Demon Hunters 2 movie coming out?
Directed by Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans, KPop Demon Hunters has tapped into the zeitgeist of K-pop obsessed kids and teens, and that’s a sure-fire way to get a hit film. They call the BTS fans an “army” for a reason! The film follows a fictional Korean girl pop group, Huntr/x (voiced by Arden Cho, May Hong, and Ji-young Yoo for dialogue, and Ejae, Audrey Nuna, and Rei Ami for singing) who also secretly slay demons in their spare time. And it just so happens that an all-boy rival K-pop group, the Saja Boys, are not boys at all—they’re demons. Let the figurative and literal slaying commence!

Also featuring the voices of actors Ahn Hyo-seop, Yunjin Kim, Daniel Dae Kim, Ken Jeong, and Lee Byung-hun, KPop Demon Hunters is so hot right now, among 12-year-olds. That’s a powerful demographic! We can only assume Netflix wants to keep the K-pop party going. Here’s what we know about a possible KPop Demon Hunters 2 movie.
Will there be a KPop Demon Hunters 2 movie?
A KPop Demon Hunters sequel has not yet officially been confirmed. Right now, there is not an official announcement about a KPop Demon Hunters 2 movie in development.
However, the movie certainly seems to be a big hit for Netflix, and Netflix tends to order up sequels to its original movies that hit big. (See: The Old Guard 2, Extraction 2, and the upcoming Red Notice 2). On top of that, co-directors Chris Appelhans and Maggie Kang have both expressed interest in making a sequel. In an interview with Shine On Media, the directors were asked about the chances of a sequel, or a series, to KPop Demon Hunters.
“Because we had to pack so much into 85 minutes—it was a pretty idea and a lot of pieces—there are so many unanswered questions, in a good way, and so many avenues that could be their own story,” Appelhans said. “So many possibilities.”
In a different interview with Screenrant, Kang had a similar response when asked if she was “thinking of sequels.”
“Always,” Kang replied. “There are always side stories, and there are things we’ve thought of while making this one. There are a lot of questions that are answered, but not fully. I think there are a lot of pockets that we can explore.”
The cast, too, seems completely on board for KPop Demon Hunters 2. Speaking to Mama’s Geeky, star Ji-young Yoo said, “I would totally do it again. I’ll be honestly a little bummed if we can’t do a sequel.”
Star Arden Cho agreed, adding, “I know. I would be heartbroken if there isn’t a sequel.”
What is KPop Demon Hunters 2 release date?
There is no KPop Demon Hunters 2 movie release date yet, because the movie is not even officially in development yet. While it’s definitely good news that the movie was a hit, and that the cast and crew are on board for a sequel, there is still the matter of scheduling, as well as many other details that will factor into if, and when, a sequel movie gets made.
The first movie was first announced back in 2021. Maggie Kang and Chris Appelhans were announced as directors in June 2024, the cast was announced in April 2025, and the movie was released in June 2025. With animation, voice acting work can get done much faster than live-action, which often revolves around acting schedules. So, it is possible that you could KPop Demon Hunters 2 as soon as Summer 2026, if the film gets green lit tomorrow.
However, this is all speculation. KPop Demon Hunters 2 has not yet been confirmed. For now, we’ll just have to wait and see.
Let’s be honest—no matter how stressful the day gets, a good viral video can instantly lift your mood. Whether it’s a funny pet doing something silly, a heartwarming moment between strangers, or a wild dance challenge, viral videos are what keep the internet fun and alive.
