“Squid Game” director made a remark that this top star may appear in the series in the future.
As the production of season 2 has been confirmed, the possibility that a Hollywood top actor might appear in the “Squid Game” series has been raised, attracting great attention.
On September 16th (local time), as reported by the British daily Metro, “Squid Game” director Hwang Dong Hyuk revealed that a top actor might star in a future season of “Squid Game”.
At the meeting after the Emmys held in Seoul on the same day, director Hwang Dong Hyuk said, “Overseas actors said they really like ‘Squid Game’. Leonardo DiCaprio said he was a big fan of ‘Squid Game’, so I thought about contacting him. I don’t remember him specifically saying ‘I want to appear’ but he showed a lot of love to the series.”
Leonardo DiCaprio also drew attention when he took photos with “Squid Game” star Lee Jung Jae at the LACMA Art + Film Gala last year.
In response to director Hwang’s plan, expectations are rising that DiCaprio will be able to appear in “Squid Game” in the future.
However, it will be difficult to expect foreign famous actors to appear in Season 2 of “Squid Game”. Director Hwang said, “I have no plans for foreign actors to appear in season 2. I don’t know if the cast will change in season 3, but the cast of season 2 is also Korean.”
Meanwhile, since its release in September of last year, “Squid Game” has accumulated over 1.6 billion hours of viewing time, achieving the highest viewing time in the history of Netflix and gaining worldwide syndrome-level popularity.
At the 74th Primetime Emmy Awards held in Los Angeles, California, USA on September 13th (Korean time), the cast and crew of “Squid Game” made history by winning a total of 6 awards.
