HBO is in talks for a series adaptation of director Bong Joon Ho’s acclaimed thriller “Parasite,” TheWrap has learned.
Bong would serve as an executive producer on the adaptation alongside “Succession” producer Adam McKay. Talks are ongoing, and creative details have not been fully worked out, including whether or not the potential project would be in English or Korean.
A major awards contender this season, “Parasite” has already picked up a number of major awards since winning the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival last year. At Sunday’s Golden Globes, where the “Parasite” was also up for directing and screenplay awards, Bong took home the statue for Best Foreign Language Feature.
