Following the success of the original, 'Tazza: The Hidden Card' was released in 2014, featuring TOP (Choi Seung-hyun) from BIGBANG, Shin Se-kyung, Lee Ha-nee, Kwak Do-won, and Lee Dong-hwi. In 2019, 'Tazza: One Eyed Jack' was produced, starring Park Jung-min, Lee Kwang-soo, Lim Ji-yeon, Choi Yoo-hwa, Ryu Seung-beom, and Yoon Je-moon.

In 'Tazza 4', Byun Yo-han has been offered the lead role of Jang Tae-young, based on the fourth part of the original comic. The film will be directed by Choi Kook-hee, known for his work on 'Life is Beautiful', 'The Day of the Country's Bankruptcy', and the drama 'No Way Out: The Roulette'.
