Vivienne Medrano discussed one of Hazbin Hotel’s most anticipated possibilities following the show’s Season 2 premiere. The creator of the animated hit explained how she envisions bringing the Hellaverse into live-action and why she believes the series works best in a different format.
Vivienne Medrano speaks on the prospects of Hazbin Hotel’s live-action adaptation
Vivienne Medrano addressed the possibility of a live-action adaptation of Hazbin Hotel while promoting the release of the show’s second season on Amazon Prime Video, which premiered with two new episodes on October 29, 2025, as reported by ComicBook.com. The “Hellaverse” series already secured renewals for seasons three and four after debuting as a theatrical sing-along earlier this year. When asked about a live-action version, Medrano said she wants it—but not traditionally.
“I think for sure that Hazbin Hotel as a series only works in animation,” Medrano explained. “I’m not the biggest fan of taking something into live-action unless there’s a reason to. What I could see and what I would love to see is a stage adaptation.” She described the potential of a theatrical production as a natural fit for the show’s tone, adding, “I think a stage musical set in this universe or about these characters would be the coolest thing, especially since it could be its own thing.”
Medrano further elaborated on how a live performance could translate the show’s musical elements and emotional range. “A play could humanize these characters in ways that make sense visually, but also just have the element of musical theater, since that’s what the show is,” she said. “There’s a degree of separation where you allow yourself to step into a fantasy when you’re watching a musical. I think that’s something that would translate pretty well.”
Season two will release two episodes weekly, totaling eight by year’s end, as work on future seasons continues. Medrano confirmed that Helluva Boss also remains part of Amazon’s expanding Hellaverse lineup.
