A final season for Squid Game
After a dramatic finale for the second season, the third season of the phenomenon series Squid Game is about to hit Netflix. One thing is certain, history has not yet said its last word. Fans of the series won't have to wait too long, because season 3 has already been confirmed… and filmed!
Return to the playing field in 2025
The official release date for season 3 has not yet been announced, but Netflix has confirmed that it will premiere in 2025. Filming for the third season has been completed, and series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk confirmed in late 2024 that they were working on post-production. This means we could wait well into 2025 before seeing the new episodes.
What fate for the surviving characters?
Season 2 ends with a close vote between players on whether or not to leave the competition and share the winnings. Chaos ensues when the Os attack the Xs, killing several of them in a brutal manner. However, Seong Gi-Hun has a plan: it's time to end the game once and for all.
Season 3 is expected to pick up where Season 2 left off, and continue the games. One thing is certain: the shocking deaths are not over.
A reduced cast for season 3
As expected with Squid Game, there were a lot of deaths in season 2. This means that the cast list for season 3 is much smaller than for the second. Actors and characters expected to return include Lee Jung-jae as Seong Gi-hun, Wi Ha-joon as Hwang Jun-ho, and Lee Byung-hun as Hwang In-ho , the man in front.
What do we think?
Squid Game Season 3 is eagerly awaited by fans around the world. The dazzling success of this series shows that audiences are ready for daring stories and disconcerting scenarios. With a reduced cast and ever-higher stakes, this third season promises to take viewers on a whirlwind of emotions. It remains to be seen whether it will be able to meet the colossal expectations it has raised.
