SKYBOUND ENTERTAINMENT AND CONTENTS PANDA TEAM TO PRODUCE THE VILLAINESS

The Television Series Will Be Based off the 2017 Korean Film

January 15th , 2019 (Los Angeles, CA) – Skybound Entertainment and Next Entertainment World’s Contents Panda announced a partnership to produce The Villainess, a scripted series based on the 2017 Korean film of the same name. JUNG Byung-gil, who directed the original film, is attached to direct the pilot episode.

Based off the 2017 theatrical version, The Villainess will follow Anes, who was kidnapped from her home in Korea and raised as a deadly assassin in Los Angeles. Just when Anes believes she has found true peace, unsettling events drive her to return to Korea to uncover dangerous truths about her home and her past.

“JUNG Byung-gil has quickly established himself as one of the world’s great action directors, and we’re incredibly excited to be working with him to expand the world of The Villainess into a thrilling international series,” said Bryan and Sean Furst in a joint statement.

Skybound and Contents Panda are currently looking for a writer for The Villainess.

“We expect that The Villainess, which made a successful debut in Cannes Film Festival, will bring special entertainment and fun to the audience with its rich stories of the genre, and through the partnership with Skybound Entertainment, already well-known for The Walking Dead,” said KIM Jae-min of Contents Panda.

Additional television projects at Skybound include an animated adaptation of Robert Kirkman’s comic book series Invincible at Amazon, in production now, a pre-apocalyptic series 5 Year which is being produced across various markets globally, and genre-bending docu-series Dead by Dawn with NatGeo WILD, which premiered on January 13, 2019.
