Squid Game Season 3: Advances

The creator of the Hwang Dong-hyuk series has not only imagined the third season of Squid Game but has also decided that this will represent the ending of the story, but also from Netflix. In the For Your Consideration award event, held in New York last November 2024, the author of the Squid Game story revealed to the Hollywood Reporter that when he thought about the ending of the Gi-hun story it was natural for him to imagine that it would end with a third season without the need for further explanation for the epilogue of the story.

Among the most relevant surprises is the character of guard No-eul, already seen in previous seasons. His movements in the trailer suggest that he could act on his own. Whether it is a threat to the entire system or a decisive pawn to make it collapse, it remains to be understood. But something also moves between those who wear the mask.

Meanwhile, the face of Gyeong-seok (player 246) appears for a moment: that he survive? The trailer does not clarify it, but leaves several scenarios open.
