奉俊昊即將跟HBO合作拍攝《上流寄生族》的劇集版,消息一出自然令影迷相當興奮,更關心的事是會重拍電影內容的詳細版,還是延續電影的故事。而奉俊昊終於透露劇集版的詳情,原來並非翻拍電影內容,反而是延續電影?

但這樣會否是《上流寄生族》的續集呢?又不能完全這樣說,因為奉俊昊在接受訪問時表示自己在拍攝《上流寄生族》時想法很多,但難以用短短兩小時的時間表達。所以可以把這些想法放進劇集內。

奉俊昊舉出導演英格瑪柏格曼經典作《芬妮和亞歷山大》(Fanny och Alexander)為例,說出電影也有兩個版本,所以希望《上流寄生族》可以是補充角色背後的故事,又或是內容的延續。對比於是續集,更可以說把電影擴展。

當然內容仍然是一個很初步的階段,至於大家關心的問題,演活了這部電影靈魂的一班演員會否拍攝劇集版呢,暫時是未知之數。
