As a seasoned gamer and binge-watcher with a knack for discerning quality content, I must admit my curiosity piqued when I heard about the potential English-language Squid Game series under development by none other than David Fincher. Having watched his dark, intricate, and often twisted masterpieces like Se7en, Fight Club, Zodiac, and Gone Girl, I can’t help but wonder what a Fincher-directed Squid Game would look like.
As a passionate fan counting down the days until the December 26th release of Squid Game season 2, I can’t help but speculate on what exciting twists and turns await us in this beloved Netflix series!
For quite a while now, it has been common knowledge that Netflix has renewed the show for a third and last season. However, buzz is circulating that an Oscar-nominated filmmaker might be working on a new English series, potentially expanding the universe.
Based on Deadline reports, Netflix is initiating the creation of an English-speaking version of “Squid Game,” potentially expanding the series past Season 3 and the second round of its reality spinoff. They’ve enlisted filmmaker David Fincher to lead this new endeavor.
David Fincher might be working on new Squid Game series
It’s logical for this collaboration to take place since Fincher recently extended his contract with Netflix this year. However, as the potential show is still in its initial stages of development, specific details are limited. We only know that it will be scripted, in English, and possibly set in America.
It isn’t clear to what extent Fincher will be involved in the production of the series, given his past roles as an executive producer on “House of Cards” and director for only a few episodes, and his role as both executive producer and director for several episodes of “Mindhunter.
There’s no doubt that Fincher’s an excellent director for a potential Squid Game series. Some of his films have been known for their violent and mysterious elements, such as Se7en, Fight Club, Zodiac, and Gone Girl. There’s a reason he has been nominated for the Best Director Oscar three times.
As a die-hard Squid Game fan, I’ve found myself pondering over this question: “Should there be an English-language Squid Game series?” This query pops up whenever we discuss reboots, revivals, or sequels. The answer, much like the past instances, seems to be: Probably not. However, let me explain why I feel that way.
Come the close of each day, Netflix will undoubtedly lean on their top-tier, popular, and profitable shows and creators. In the year 2021, David Fincher earned Netflix an Academy Award nomination for Best Picture (and many more) with Mank. They’re going to ride that wave of success with him.
Based on reports by Deadline, it seems likely that director Fincher will collaborate with Netflix on a new chapter within the Squid Game universe around 2025. The series is expected to be completed and launched soon after the airing of Squid Game season 3 in 2025, but the project’s progression awaits approval from Netflix.
