Quick Navigation
Redice Entertainment, the South Korean studio synonymous with the acclaimed manhwa adaptation of Solo Leveling, is now branching into the international film scene. With an established reputation in the webtoon landscape, Redice has produced several significant titles, with Solo Leveling arguably being their most prominent success.
The studio’s contributions to the world of manhwa extend beyond just one title; they have been involved in numerous projects that likely enhance their allure for anime adaptations. The webtoon version of Solo Leveling has particularly been pivotal in cultivating a global audience.
At the upcoming European Film Market (EFM), taking place from February 13-19, 2025, in Berlin, Redice will showcase a carefully curated lineup featuring films like Sister and Killing Time, both of which are currently in post-production.
Redice’s Film Ventures
The initial foray into filmmaking for Redice was through the funding of the Thai horror feature The Cursed Land, produced by Neramitnung Film and premiered at the 2024 Rotterdam International Film Festival.
The studio has additional titles slated for presentation, including The Bus, The Go To Restaurant, Samakdo, and Veranda, showcasing their commitment to diverse storytelling.
Future Implications
The strategic move signifies Redice’s ambition to broaden its operations and suggests a favorable return on investment from The Cursed Land, paving the way for further productions.
Redice is poised to “start big”with its latest projects. Sister is a gripping crime thriller featuring Jung Zi-so from Parasite, delving into a tense hostage situation, while Killing Time presents a unique horror narrative centered on a fictional YouTube crew that faces an unforeseen tragedy during a livestream.
While it appears that these films are not directly affiliated with Redice’s webtoon catalog, the success of these ventures may lead the company to consider partnerships for adapting key titles from their portfolio, including the highly anticipated Solo Leveling.
Solo Leveling can be streamed on Crunchyroll for fans eager to explore its thrilling narrative further.
