Netflix has been tight-lipped regarding whether Squid Game will return for a second season, but many fans believe it is a sure-fire bet considering just how popular the live-action series has become for the streaming service, though creator Hwang Dong-hyuk had stated in an interview with news outlet Variety that he doesn’t have firm plans for where the story would go in a follow-up season:
“I don’t have well-developed plans for ‘Squid Game 2,’ it is quite tiring just thinking about it. But if I were to do it, I would certainly not do it alone. I’d consider using a writers’ room and would want multiple experienced directors.”
Netflix Geeked shared the behind the scenes pictures via its Official Twitter Account, showing the actors and creative minds behind the series creating the bloody tale that has become one of the biggest television series of 2021 and is sure to be seen quite a bit at many Halloween parties across the world later this month:
If you aren’t one of the many people that have experienced the life or death games that have made Squid Game a hit, Netflix has supplied an official description of the series which gives you a better idea of what you are in store for should you decide to jump in:
