Is 'Train to Busan 2' In the Works?
A lot of fans are waiting for Train to Busan 2 - the question is, it is in the works?
In 2016, actor Gong Yoo told Sports Chosun about the potential for a sequel. He said that he would love to be a part of it. However, since his character died in the first installment and turned into a zombie, he suggested telling the story from a zombie perspective.
"I talked about this with Director Yeon Sang Ho, and I said that I thought my character Seok Woo might be living somewhere as a zombie. But Director Yeon said that when Seok Woo fell off the train, he broke his neck and died. But I suppose since Ma Dong Seok's character is living on as a zombie, the could do a sequel from his character's perspective," he said.
Since his statement, rumors have been rife about the sequel's direction. However, there are still reports that claim that the sequel's focus would be on a different person.
Reports also point out that Train to Busan 2 will hit theatres this year. Unfortunately, production details are still unknown.
