The official trailer for Squid Game’s second season has finally dropped, and it zeroes in on the pressing question that’s been on everyone’s mind: why on earth would anyone opt back into such a harrowing experience?
The teaser offers a glimpse of the classic elements that made the first season so gripping—think the signature symbols like the clear piggy bank brimming with cash, the creepy giant girl statue, and the return of some beloved cast members. But what really has me on the edge of my seat is the tantalizing sneak peek at the show’s electric dialogue. In the same way “They got mansions, think we should rob them” defined 2002, “Those who created this game, we should fight them” is poised to become the catchphrase of 2024. And trust me, that’s a high compliment.
Mark your calendars for December 26 when season 2 drops on Netflix, riding a wave of sky-high expectations. The show’s first season didn’t just capture global attention; it became Netflix’s most-watched series ever, racking up an astounding 1.65 billion viewing hours in just 28 days. That’s not just impressive; it’s a gold mine for content creators and competing streaming platforms looking to cash in on some of the Squid Game buzz. Can’t wait for the new season? Amazon Prime has a little something at home to tide you over.
