Netflix’s Squid Game Season 2 Begins Filming Sooner Than Expected


Squid Game caused an uproar on Netflix when its first season was released on the streaming platform back in late 2021. The epic dystopian TV series ended on a cliffhanger with a promise of a continuation to the story. Well, wait no further as show star Lee Jung-Jae recently teased that Squid Game Season 2 will soon begin their filming for their return!

“As we all saw at the end of [Squid Game] Season 1, the main plot of Season 2 will be revenge, and the key figure who controlled the working of the games in Season 1 was Lee Byung Hun sunbae, so it seems that the two of us will be the central figures of this next story.” Lee Jung-Jae said (via allkpop), “This is the first time that I’ll be working with Lee Byung Hun sunbae, actually.”

Little is known in what Squid Game Season 2 holds in store, however, speculations do point to where Lee Jung Jae directed his audience: focusing on the theme of revenge of Seong Gi-Hun. Another thing is the high possibility of featuring a new set of characters, seeing as Squid Game Season 1 characters have already lost their chance in the game.

Now, amidst the teaser on what Season 2 holds for the fans, Lee Jung-Jae adds: “Anyways, Squid Game 2 will begin filming in the summer and the filming will likely last for about 10 months, as well, but that was with delays caused by COVID-19. [But] seeing as Season 2 will be bigger in scale, it will probably take longer to complete.”

Well, you heard it from the Squid Game star first, folks! Squid Game Season 2 will likely be released sometime in 2024 with the promise of a BIGGER production. Are you thrilled to see the Squid Game stars return?

In the meantime, you can catch up on all episodes of Squid Game Season 1 available to stream on Netflix, while waiting for Squid Game Season 2 potentially coming out sometime in 2024.
