THE VILLAINESS director Jung Byung-gil will be directing the pilot episode of the TV show. Skybound and Contents Panda are currently looking for a writer to handle the small screen adaptation.
Bryan and Sean Furst, Co-Presidents of TV and Film at Skybound, said this in a statement:
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."
