由於《上流寄生族》大受歡迎,早前證實HBO會改篇為迷你美劇,導演當然是奉俊昊,但對於演員班底仍然未有消息,而且內容會是電影版的延續。消息一出,影迷已經相當期待,畢竟電影版的《上流寄生族》充滿餘悸,可以在劇集版看到更多細節,令人非常興奮。

原本已經令人期待,加上電影於奧斯卡取得佳續後,令電影再次掀起熱潮,而更多人關注劇集版的進度。雖然劇集還未開拍,而據知是全英語演出,不禁令人聯想是否不會原班人馬出演,然而終於再有關於演員的消息釋出,是關於男主角「窮爸爸」金基澤。

在電影版中,是由韓國影帝,同時是奉俊昊好拍檔宋康昊飾演男主角金基澤,演活貧窮而樂觀的性格,雖然最後悲劇收場,但他的演技令電影更加出色。但來到劇集版卻傳出由「變形俠醫」Mark Ruffalo飾演窮爸爸一角。

雖然消息暫時未得到證實,但Mark Ruffalo相當欣賞《上流寄生族》,在不同的訪問中大讚電影,相信如果真的邀請他出演主角,他似乎亦不會拒絕。但是變成了美劇的《上流寄生族》,會否令影迷難以接受?不知道奉俊昊能否再創另一個經典。
