Mark your calendars for December 26, Squid Game season two is set for a Christmas release on Netflix.
FULL STORY ======================================================================
Squid Game season two is scheduled to premiere on Netflix on December 26 but if that's too long to wait then you can get an early sneak peek at the show's players (both new and returning characters) in a new teaser trailer that was released today, August 12. Check it out below.
In the short trailer, we see the return of Seong Gi-hun, played by Lee-Jung jae, gazing into the lens with a dark backdrop and the same spine-chilling soundtrack from season one of the best Netflix series , which could easily be a trailer for a new Jordan Peele psychological thriller. We know that the
plot of season two will follow the events of the first games, which will see Gi-hun on his mission to identify and seek revenge on the games creators, but the trailer heavily points to new characters who we think will play an integral role in Gi-huns next chapter.
The addition of the shows new characters is nothing new to us as Netflix has already unveiled its new cast members , recruiting actors Yim Si-wan, Kang Ha-neul, Park Gyu-young, and Lee Jin-uk for the games second round of life or death challenges. But Netflixs roll out for Squid Game season two is still
one of total mystery as the trailer avoids revealing the identities of the shows new additions, showing only the player numbers 007, 044, 120, 125, 222, and a few others in a rapid jump-cut sequence. These players are the ones to keep an eye on
When Squid Game first arrived on the best streaming service in 2021, it
became an instant hit, quickly becoming Netflixs most-watched show at the time. Now, three years since its debut, a second season is finally on the way but Netflix is being very quiet about details hence its hush hush way of going about its out roll. And while we still dont know exactly what were in store for, the new character teaser trailer points us towards a more robust theory about its plot.
Weve previously shared what we think will occur in addition to new gruesome challenges , one of those being our thoughts that Hwang Jun-hos fate will be explored more in season two, and now the new trailer invites new theories about the new players joining Gi-hun in his second round. The specific player numbers we see in the trailer are revealed in a very on-the-nose manner,
which makes us think that each will play an important role in Gi-huns success
or failure in getting revenge on the games creators.
Netflix is doing a brilliant job at brewing speculation of who these new players are, and doesnt give any indication of their purpose in season two, meaning they could either aid Gi-hun, or bring about his demise. Its really anyones game at this point. You might also like Get your calendars ready!
