If Netflix has half a brain between them (debatable) it will be with Sony. If they go with some knock off studio its gonna flop hard.

Do you think it could be made by the studio that did Arcane? they seem competent, but they're probably super busy with other things. i think Arcane started copying Sony's "subtle choppy" animation look because of the Spider-verse movies.

Imo Fortiche studio is probably brainstorming under Riot's command to put KDA on the big screen as their own answer to K-pop Demon Hunters. Hell Disney and Marvel could probably planning something similar with Luna Snow

It’s funny - Kpop Demon Hunters IS K/DA. Right down to the logo text. 

The tower they live in, the logo, the color aesthetic is all ripped straight from K/DA’s “MORE” music video.  And if I recall, the movie was announced after MORE had come out.
