This article contains spoilers from Solo Leveling.
2025 was an absolutely massive year for Solo Leveling. The series reached new heights with the release of its second season earlier in January, and it's safe to say that fans loved every bit of what the new season had to offer. With its conclusion of Solo Leveling Season 2, however, big questions about the future of the series emerged. Solo Leveling fans were wondering what comes next, especially since no announcement about a continuation has been made.
It’s Time To Admit That Sung Jinwoo Isn’t The Best Solo Leveling Protagonist
Jinwoo is popular, but Solo Leveling has a superior protagonist to him.
Many fans assumed a third season would follow. However, recently, reports suggest that Solo Leveling won’t be getting a third season, but a new movie. What’s exciting is that this movie might be released in 2026, which means Solo Leveling fans will get their share of exciting content in 2026. At the moment, it is unclear what the upcoming Solo Leveling movie would be about, but it is highly likely that it'll cover content that was supposed to be included in the third season.
Solo Leveling Is Getting A New Movie In 2026
Movie Release Date Set For 2026
Solo Leveling fans were waiting for big news concerning the third season of the series ever since the second season ended. After all, Solo Leveling Season 3 was mentioned by directors in interviews, so many fans definitely thought that would be the next step for the series.
A New Shadow: Sung Jinwoo's Next Power Up In Solo Leveling Season 3 Is Coming
Jinwoo is getting a new overpowered Shadow in season 3, and it will be one of the best in Solo Leveling.
However, a report from the production committee of Solo Leveling has been found by fans, and what it contains definitely wasn’t what they expected. The report states that a Solo Leveling movie is next, and not a third season. What’s more, it seems that this movie could be dropping in late 2026, which would only be a year or so from now. That said, production for this movie has yet to start, so the release date might change, and the movie could be pushed back.
What Will The New Solo Leveling Movie Be About?
It Could Cover The Events Beyond Season 2
- Solo Leveling movie could adapt beyond chapter 110 of the Manhwa
- New Jinwoo fights to come
With the new Solo Leveling movie being planned for next year, fans do wonder what it could be about. For now, nobody knows what events the movie is going to cover. However, it’s definitely possible that it will cover the same events that Solo Leveling Season 3 would have covered.
It’s also not impossible that the Solo Leveling movie completely diverges from that and covers an original story. After all, the likes of The Apothecary Diaries are doing just that in 2026 as well. Either way, fans are quite excited for what the studio will come up with, especially to see Sung Jinwoo in action once again.
Solo Leveling has two seasons out right now, one with 12 episodes, and the other with 13, for a combined episode count of 25 episodes available to watch right now. The series can be streamed on Crunchyroll for fans to enjoy while awaiting any more news concerning the third season. For fans who can’t wait for season 3 to come out, checking out the Manhwa might be a great option.
