Netflix has just dropped an exciting new trailer for Squid Game Season 2, set to hit screens next month.
In the highly anticipated follow-up, Lee Jung-jae returns as Player 456, determined to track down the masterminds behind the deadly game. This season introduces a fresh antagonist, Player 230, played by Choi Seung Hyun (T.O.P.), who cunningly manipulates fellow players, pushing them to their doom.
The official Squid Game Season 2 logline from Netflix teases: “Three years after his victory, Player 456 has put plans to move to the United States on hold and returns with a newfound resolve. Gi-hun reenters the dangerous survival game, where he faces off against a new batch of desperate participants, all chasing the 45.6 billion won prize.”
