We used to hate parasites… but not anymore.

HBO has confirmed that an American remake of the award-winning Korean movie, Parasite is in the works, but in the form of a limited series!
Director, Bong Joon-ho joins Adam McKay as executive producers of the show.
Bong said that he had all these key ideas when he started writing the script but just couldn’t include everything in the movie! He also added that his goal with this limited series is to eventually create a six-hour long film! Whoa!
... and that’s not the only news! Avengers star Mark Ruffalo is also rumoured to be joining the cast, to play the role of the father.
But calm down, it’s not confirmed just yet. Mark however, holds a lot of admiration for Bong Joon-ho and he’s said in one of his interviews that he’s a big fan of both the director and the film itself!
The Twitterverse is already against this but …. why, guys?
@junleeenee they need to leave parasite as it is😫

This whole thing seems so unnecessary. But we'll see I guess.
