Are you still hooked on quirky Jang Man-wol in Hotel Del Luna? If you're a big fan of the drama then you will be elated with the news we're about to share - Hotel Del Luna is confirmed to have a remake as an American series!
Earlier this year, CJ ENM and Studio Dragon entered a strategic partnership with American production company Skydance Media for joint investment of production in global dramas and films. Skydance Television is best known for their work in films like Terminator, 6 Underground, and Mission Impossible.
Park Hyun, the head of Studio Dragon’s Global Division commented:
We’re incredibly happy to be working with globally renowned production company Skydance as well as writer Alison Schapker, and we’re looking forward to the future. ‘Hotel del Luna’ being chosen as our first collaborative project shows that our company’s work is globally competitive.
We will lead the ‘Hotel del Luna’ project to success, and we will create international dramas that more people from around the world can enjoy. In doing so, we will become a premium drama studio that can elevate the status of Korean content.
Bill Bost, president of Skydance Television, added:
At its core, ‘Hotel del Luna’ is a spectacular visual fantasy grounded in a story about the importance of human connection, lost lives, and unfinished business. We are excited to be partnering with Alison and Studio Dragon to bring this timeless story to a global audience.
Skdance Media's Hotel del Luna will be written by writer-producer Alison Schapker. She was the executive producer for the second season of Netflix's Altered Carbon and has also worked on the political drama Scandal and sci-fi series Fringe.
There are no further details on the new remake as of now but we're sure more news will drop as time goes by. Stay tuned!
