Collider now reports that HBO is in early developments turning the film into a series for the network. While details are on the low, the publication reports that Mark Ruffalo is being eyed to star in the television rendition. Bong will be teaming with Adam McKay on the series to produce five or six episodes. The publication reached out to the network for a statement. “The HBO limited series inspired by Parasite is in the early stages development, and to speculate on any characters or casting is wildly premature,” they responded. 

“I had all these key ideas accumulated from when I started writing the script,” Bong said the series. “I just couldn’t include all those ideas in the two-hour running time the film, so they’re all stored in my iPad and my goal with this limited series is to create a six-hour-long film.”
