As the year draws to a close, Solo Leveling fans are waiting for only one thing, and that is new anime content. Solo Leveling Season 2 came out almost a year ago, and at the moment fans don't know what else to expect from the series moving forward. Fans were expecting Solo Leveling Season 3 to release sometime in 2026, but without any confirmation or announcement, that doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

Instead, via a report from the production committee and an exciting message from Sung Jinwoo's Japanese voice actor, Taito Banit seems Solo Leveling's 2026 project could be a movie.

A new movie is a possibility
Solo Leveling is a sensation at the moment, especially after the huge hit that was Solo Leveling Season 2, thanks to its intense battles, such as Jinwoo vs Ant King.
Still, ever since the finale, fans have been given only scraps of information about future Solo Leveling projects. Previous, Sung Jinwoo's Japanese voice actor, Taito Ban, left an interesting message. He mentioned that he wants to see Solo Leveling continue to go strong with more anime seasons, and maybe even a movie.
By itself, this doesn't mean much to fans. After all, Taito Ban doesn't really have a say in what Solo Leveling content is produced.
“I would really, really like it if the momentum continued and it didn't just stop because there's so much more of the story left to tell. So season three, season four, season five, maybe even a movie in the works.” —Taito Ban
But a while ago, a report from the Solo Leveling Production Committee was leaked. The committee's report strongly indicated that a Solo Leveling movie is being considered at the moment. The success of Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle has definitely shown how lucrative anime movies can be.
What will the Solo Leveling movie be about?
Right now, fans don't know much about the movie Solo Leveling. All the information fans currently have comes from the production committee's report. Of course, fans are still curious about what this new movie might cover.
The Solo Leveling movie could either cover the next canon arc of the Manhwa, or the studio could continue to create a new story arc for Sung Jinwoo, either on his ownor by working with the original creator, Chugong. After all, The Apothecary Diaries does just that in 2026.
Solo Leveling's ending is changing, and it's getting even better
Solo Leveling Karma will expand the story of Solo Leveling, and potentially even change the ending.
It's hard to say what direction Solo Leveling will take in 2026, but if it does indeed follow in Demon Slayer's footsteps, a cannon arc will most likely be next. That Taito Ban even mentions a Solo Leveling movie is a huge give away, and without having any prior information about the upcoming movie projects, it would also be pretty bizarre to comment on that.
New Solo Leveling movie doesn't have a release date yet, but a 2026 release is being considered
Fans are wondering when the new Solo Leveling movie will be released. For now, the movie hasn't even been officially confirmedso no one really knows when it will come out. As said, the production committee's report indicated that it is slated for a 2026 release.
However, it must be remembered that the date is not set in stone and may change depending on progress. This is because the film is still in pre-production stages at the moment, and a lot can still go wrong.
Solo Leveling Season 3 may be delayed
Solo Leveling Season 3 was what fans expected to be the next step for the franchise, but it has become apparent that is currently not the case anymore.
Solo Leveling Season 3 could still happen in the future, probably after the movie. But it will definitely be delayed indefinitely. Solo Leveling is unlikely to get a third season before 2027 at the moment.
