“It took 12 years for the first season of ‘Squid Game’ to come to life last year. “It took 12 days for ‘Squid Game to become Netflix’s most popular series ever,’” Hwang wrote. As the writer, director and producer of “Squid Game”, a huge scream to fans around the world. Thank you for watching and loving our show … Come again for a whole new cycle. ” The update is taking place despite the shift in Netflix fortunes since the series debuted. While Squid Game was a huge global success, in April Netflix reported its first drop in subscribers in 10 years. This was quickly followed by layoffs and a reported tightening of production budgets at almost all levels. Netflix is also focusing on restricting password sharing and has told employees that it will start streaming ad support by the end of this year. The Korean series became the largest Netflix series ever released. Last year, Hwang said he was in the “planning process” of developing the second season, while Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos said, “the Squid Game universe has just begun.” In other words, we all pretty much knew the second season was coming, but now it’s official. It is unclear exactly when the second season will debut – or if it is still over. In an interview with Vanity Fair, Hwang said on the release that he could see Squid Game next season coming out by the end of 2023 or 2024 and include more devilish games. So if you were hoping to see what kind of problems Gi-hun will bring next, you might have to wait a year or two.
