Netflix hasn’t yet signaled a renewal for All of Us Are Dead, but its popularity on the platform could be key to getting that long-awaited sequel. Is the team behind the production okay with moving on? In fact, the director Lee Jae-kyoo confessed that the project was born to be able to enlarge the story with at least one more season.

The television adaptation of Joo Dong-Geun‘s webtoon premiered at the end of January and is already on the list of the most-watched non-English speaking series on the streaming service. In the Top that groups only ten titles, they lead The Squid Game and the last three parts of Money Heist, two productions with wide success since they became a worldwide phenomenon; although the fiction of the zombie genre is not far from achieving it as well.

For that reason, Lee did not rule out the development of more episodes in an interview with the Korea Herald. “Many directions, settings, and scenes were intentionally produced to expand the story into an additional season, including the introduction of new zombie races: immune and immortal,” said the filmmaker, referring to the variants of the virus that were tested through three high school characters

“If the first season can be considered to have featured the survival of humanity, the next season can be about the survival of zombies. I look forward to introducing viewers to another season,” he added. The end of All of Us Are Dead confirmed that Nam-ra is still alive and has been recruiting kids like her (half-human, half-zombie) in the areas bombed by the South Korean army, so it wouldn’t be strange if this group now be threatened by the uninfected.


Why did ‘All of Us Are Dead’ started with the origin of the virus?

The beginning of the South Korean series is far from how its author captures it in the digital comic because he had no intention – from the first moment – ​​of giving a reason for the creation of the zombie virus. In the TV version, the opposite happens, since we see how the science teacher’s son is a victim of bullying and that becomes a reason for him to start experimenting on his son so that he never dies.

“The origin of the zombie virus was introduced in the series as an attempt to highlight the people who take responsibility and those who do not when an event occurs, such as school violence,” said director Lee Jae-kyoo about this decision. narrative. “Even though it’s another zombie action thriller, I think the series gives viewers a chance to analyze what kind of people they are,” he said.

All the chapters of We are dead are available to watch on Netflix.
