Contrary to the consistent success of the show since its debut in Season 1, the creator of Squid Game, Hwang Dong-hyuk, has expressed doubts about a Season 4. Instead, he has hinted at a possible spin-off concept for the popular series.
Since its groundbreaking debut in 2021, Squid Game has drawn enormous audiences, leading to a second season renewal on Netflix last December. With the third season set to arrive soon, the creator of the show has hinted at plans for a spin-off, emphasizing that the upcoming storyline won’t be a direct sequel.
What is the creator’s idea for the potential Squid Game spin-off?
It appears Hwang is open to broadening the dystopian universe he constructed, as suggested in an Entertainment Weekly interview. The creator has mentioned contemplating a sequel to Squid Game, hinting at a spin-off that will deviate from the arena setting and concentrate on the three-year interval between Seasons 1 and 2.
Hwang mentioned a potential idea he’s been pondering: “Perhaps instead of a sequel, a spinoff could be created focusing on the three-year gap between seasons 1 and 2, where we see Gi-hun searching for recruiters. This spinoff might explore what the recruiters, Captain Park [Oh Dal-su], officers, or masked men were doing during that time, outside of the gaming arena.” In essence, he’s contemplating a storyline that delves into their lives beyond their professional roles in Squid Game.
Hwang indicated that the third season would serve as the final installment of the show, but he left open the possibility for the story to continue in some form. He further explained, “Season 3 will provide a satisfying conclusion, and you’ll notice this when you watch. However, I don’t rule out the possibility of spinoffs or sequels in the future since ‘never say never.’
Season 3 continues the thrilling journey of our protagonists as they grapple with the aftermath of the Squid Game competition. As secrets unravel and alliances shift, these characters will be faced with new challenges that test their resolve and push them to their limits. The stakes are higher than ever before, and only the strongest will survive. Stay tuned for more exciting twists and turns in this nail-biting drama!
In the concluding chapter of Netflix’s highly acclaimed series, our protagonist, Gi-hun or Player 456, finds himself at an all-time low. However, the Squid Game doesn’t pause for anyone, so as despair envelops him, Gi-hun must make critical decisions in a desperate bid to survive. As he and the remaining players are drawn into more lethal contests that challenge their fortitude, each choice they make escalates the stakes, leading to evermore severe repercussions.
Squid Game 3 premieres on Friday, June 27.
