Netflix’s “Squid Game” caught everyone off guard. Not only was it socially relevant and extremely engaging, but it was also extraordinarily violent. Think Hostel meets Battle Royale. It deserves all of its accolades. Can lightning strike twice for filmmaker Hwang Dong-Hyuk, who will next direct an adaptation of Killing Old People Club?
Killing Old People Club will be a feature film inspired by a novel penned by Umberto Eco, the revered Italian intellectual and essayist, writes Variety.
Dong-Hyuk revealed he has already penned a 25-page treatment about the project which will surely be “another controversial film,” he said.
“It will be more violent than ‘Squid Game,’” teased Dong-Hyuk, adding that he might have to hide from old people after the film comes out.
There’s no word on when Killing Old People Club would go into production, but it likely won’t be until after the second season of “Squid Games” is filmed.
Adds the site, the critically acclaimed creator said he will now return home to South Korea to write the second season of “Squid Game” and hopes to have the show stream on Netflix at the end of 2024.
