Summary
HUNTRIX FANS, THIS ONE'S FOR YOU!! Today Carlye and Nicole sit down with Danya Jimenez and Hannah McMechan, two of the writers behind KPOP DEMON HUNTERS. Danya and Hannah met as college freshmen and have been best friends/roommates/writing partners/co-workers/sisters/enemies/etc. ever since. The duo, most recently named to Variety’s prestigious Screenwriters to Watch for 2025 list, were just 24-years-old when they co-wrote KPOP DEMON HUNTERS, which exploded into the zeitgeist last summer – becoming Netflix’s most-watched film of all time and topping global music charts with its soundtrack. Since its release, the film has won two Golden Globe and two Critics’ Choice Awards and have earned 10 Annie Award nominations (including Best Writing – Feature) as well as five Grammy nominations. The film was also named TIME’s 2025 Breakthrough of the Year. Up next, the duo are set to write Tim Burton’s reimagining of Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, alongside Margot Robbie’s LuckyChap, who are developing and producing. Currently, the two are taking out their original series A REALLY BAD PERSON with Legendary producing, as well as an original feature, a queer western. Learn more about your ad choices.
