Squid Game Season 2 Release Date, Returning Cast and Expectations

Netflix’s global hit Korean series Squid Game Season 2 is officially green lighted by Netflix with an official season 2 teaser announcement. After the massive hit of season 1 of the series, Squid Game season 2 is expected for a long time by fans world wide and the creator of the series, Hwang Dong-hyuk who served as the writer and director for all episodes in season 1 revealed in the past that Season 2 of the series is going to take time.

Check out the official teaser for season 2 announcement.

Season 2 Cast & Plot

The plot of Season 2 is currently unknown but the showrunner Hwang Dong-hyuk confirmed who are going to return for season 2 as part of the cast and new additions to the show in a letter released to the fans.

He said the following on the cast of Squid Game season 2:

“Gi-hun returns. The front man returns. The man in the suit ddakji might be back. You also will be introduced to Young-hee’s boyfriend, Cheol-su

On the Show’s past and it’s success, Hwang Dong-hyuk said the following:

“It took 12 years to bring the first season of Squid Game to life last year,” he said. “But if took 12 days for Squid Game to become the most popular series ever.”

Upon release, the show created records for the streaming giant Netflix, becoming the most watched series in English or non-English-language by a wide margin and still holds the record. The show garnered 1.65 billion views in its first 28 days of release.

When Will Squid Game Season 2 Release?

It’s currently unclear when season 2 will be out, but an appropriate assumption can be the second half of next year or early 2024.  Hwang Dong-hyuk previously said he would hire other writers and setup a writers room if there’s season 2 of Squid Game, as writing and directing the whole season 1 of the show is exhausting for the filmmaker. So work on season 2 can be progressed at a swifter speed if Hwang Dong-hyuk sticks to his plan. Meanwhile, fans can re-watch season 1 and find interesting theories that can lead into season 2.
