For many serivores, Christmas will not take place this year on December 25, but the next day, when Netflix “offers” the second season of Squid Game to its subscribers. A true phenomenon, the work is at the top of the most watched programs on the platform, with 265 million cumulative hours. The wait is therefore immense and the conference held this Thursday in Italy supposed to provide details on this sequel did not really keep its promises. Phobia of the sacrosanct spoiler, communication, unlike the journey of the hero Seong Gi-Hun, participant 456, leaves nothing to chance, revealing only crumbs of the main plot.
“456 has become a symbol for many people. However, the new plot is larger. The first story was about how he first entered the Squid Game, survived and then won. This new plot is essentially based on the memories he has of this experience before returning to participate with the firm intention of stopping this unfair game.“, says director Hwang Dong-hyeok.
The latter also reacted to the rumor that David Fincher would prepare an American remake. “I love what he does… so I'm curious, I can't wait to see how he's going to do it, it's like he's expanding my universe!“
No revelation, however, on what the candidates will face in this new deadly game, “Seong Gi-Hun will return to the island. We will find familiar places, for example the staircase with its very bright colors. New elements have also been added so that the audience feels that it is both similar and refreshing. On the games, there will be similar ones and new ones, on a larger scale, it will also be more intriguing“, blurts out the thinking head on his series. Who denounces, through the concept of the battle royale, “capitalism and social dilemmas“.
