Squid Game’s Director Already Has Ideas For A Season 2

Squid Game fans, rejoice

by Tim Augustin  /   October 21, 2021

Hit K-drama Squid Game has made its wave in the entertainment world, with many wondering if there will be a second season. Thankfully for us fans, it seems that there just might be a continuation of the survival drama.

The writer and director of the show has an idea for season two, even though he previously said that he had no plans on one. Here is a hint for what he has in mind: the police.

During an interview with The Times, series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk said that if he ever decided to make another season of Squid Game with Netflix, he would want it to explore, “the issue with police officers.” The story would involve a character from the show viewers already know: the Frontman. He said, “While I was writing season one, I thought about the stories that could be in season two if I get to do one – one would be the story of the Frontman.”

It looks like a potential Season 2 wouldn’t revolve around Gi-hun after all, who threw away his parental duties to find the people responsible for the games in the finale. When asked about a second season by Variety, Hwang Dong-hyuk had said: “I don’t have well-developed plans for Squid Game 2. It is quite tiring just thinking about it,” but it looks like the writer has had a change of heart since. He also stressed that he would not write and direct the entire season by himself again, saying, “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.”

Squid Game has become a massive hit for Netflix, with its co-CEO Ted Sarandos recently saying: “Squid Game will definitely be our biggest non-English language show in the world, for sure, and there’s a very good chance it’s going to be our biggest show ever.” Netflix has no issue making sequels to successful projects, so it looks like the ball is in the court of Squid Game’s creator for now.

In an Instagram post made on 13 October 2021, Ted Sarandos announced that Squid Game has officially become Netflix’s biggest series launch ever.
