Solo Leveling is not done with us yet. At the Crunchyroll Showcase during Anime Expo 2026 in Los Angeles, English voice actor Aleks Le — the voice of Sung Jinwoo — took the stage to announce that Solo Leveling: Beyond the System, a brand-new theatrical anime film, is now in production.
What Is Solo Leveling: Beyond the System?
The film is described as a direct continuation of the anime series, picking up following the events of Season 2. That positions it firmly within the same story continuity rather than as a spin-off or retelling, which will be welcome news to fans who have been wondering where Jinwoo’s journey goes from here. A teaser key visual and a companion concept video were released alongside the announcement, offering the first glimpse of the film’s visual direction.
Who Is Behind the Film?
A-1 Pictures — the acclaimed studio behind both seasons of the Solo Leveling TV series — is handling animation. The film is produced by Aniplex, Netmarble, D&C MEDIA, Kakao Piccoma, and Crunchyroll. That is a heavyweight lineup: the same group of producers that brought the original Korean web novel to global anime audiences. No director has been announced yet, and further production details are to follow.
It is worth noting that Solo Leveling made history at the 2025 Crunchyroll Anime Awards, becoming the first Korean animation to sweep nine major categories including Anime of the Year. The franchise’s global momentum is very much still at full speed.
No Release Date Yet — Here Is What We Know
Crunchyroll confirmed the film is in production but held back on a release date, promising that more details will be announced at a later date. For Singapore fans who have been following the series on Crunchyroll, there is no confirmed theatrical or streaming window yet — but given that both seasons of the TV series were distributed globally through Crunchyroll, a wide international release for the film seems likely when the time comes.
