Who ever made this needs to group up the dev's who made it and make Sleeping Dogs II .
However, they did begin filming a movie about Sleeping Dogs, featuing Donnie Yen as Wei Shen. It's been in what appears to be production hell for a years now, though in 2022 Donnie stated that it was still in development. When, or if, it will ever release is unknown, but it seems more realistic to expect this to release than a sequel.
Fingers crossed.
...and to hope the success of the movie translates into a renewed interest in a sequel to the game.
Well, the game appears to be undergoing a mini-renaissance now, the steam charts show it has been steadily gaining, not losing concurrent players over the past few years, clearly demonstrating a healthy interest in the game. Gaming YouTubers seem to also be talking about it more in recent times, which is not very usual for a game this old. If the movie was to draw enough attention and hype, it wouldn't be completely unthinkable that they might have another studio take a crack at it.
This is still VERY optimistic, though. I'd give the movie about a 33% chance of coming out, and if it releases, and does well (which also is not guaranteed), it triggering some form of revival of the game at perhaps another 25-30%. So, all in all, not very likelly. But the fact that they are still even discussing using the setting, even for just a movie, shows that the publisher isn't done with the IP just yet. From then on, if the prospects look good for a sequel or spin off, it isn't fully off the table that they might try for it. They just need to see the consumer demand (and hence money) in undertaking such a project.
Let's hope so, but let's not get our hopes up too high.
Any update on the Movie?
Updates are hard to come by, but here's what I've learned so far. The movie has been planned since about a decade ago - 2014. In 2018 and later 2022 Donnie Yen has confirmed that it was still being worked on and had not been abandoned, but did not mention what stage of development it was in. It is unlikely that filming had started by 2022.
Since then there haven't been any official announcements. However, recent articles written by Cinema Online and Movies Web in February 2024 state that Sleeping Dogs is "his next project". Whether this is new insider information or simply outdated information, I cannot tell.
Donnie recently starred in John Wick 4 and this apparently increased his popularity with western audiences. There is some speculation this increases the odds of the movie getting made, but it's just that - speculation.
Speaking of John Wick, apparently they're making a John Wick game, which was described as "a mix between Sleeping Dogs and Hitman", and that doesn't sound half-bad to me.
If you are going to try and google it - do note that there is a 2024 movie with Russel Crowe called "Sleeping Dogs". Despite the name, it is unrelated to this franchise.
Lastly, there is also speculation that Square Enix, who owned the IP for sleeping dogs, sold those rights to Embracer Group back a couple of years ago. In mid 2022 Embracer bought several major franchises off Square Enix, including Thief, Deus Ex, Tomb Raider and what is described as "a back-catalog of nearly 50 IPs". Several IPs were, however, retained by Square Enix, like Just Cause and Life is Strange. The odd part is that neither company seemed to mention the Sleeping Dogs franchise, so we don't know if it was part of the deal or not.
If it was sold, and we're not sure it was, Embracer would likely have had a reason for wanting to buy it, which would put further work on the series more likely. Again, unfortunately, we're just not sure. What we do know, however, is that Donnie Yen stated that the IP had been settled for the movie and wouldn't be an issue for filming.
Like others have said, maybe if that damn movie ever comes out it could revive interest in the franchise. Taking a long time though and if Donny Yen isn't able to be Wei Shen for the movie then I think Simu Liu could be a good candidate. Looks more like Wei than Donny does and he's also a martial artist.
I hope so, too. Currently, the movie appears to be the small ray of hope that might put the franchise back in the spotlight.
By the way, for anyone interested, you should look up the Infernal Affairs movie trilogy. The dev team of Sleeping Dogs cited them as some of their biggest influences while making the game. It's about the HKPD attempting to infiltrate triads in Hong Kong, while the triads attempt to do so back. The parallels between their storylines and Sleeping Dogs are very clear.
