The film is also receiving bids for a Hollywood remake of the movie, with companies like 20th Century Fox and Sony Pictures being among those who want their claws in the franchise. There’s apparently interest in a French version as well.
As for the sequel itself, director Yeon Sang-Ho has hinted that there are two possible storylines for the upcoming sequel. It will either focus on the revitalization of the setting or it will feature a narrative arc from a zombie’s viewpoint. Can we have the second please?
