A rumoured US remake ofSquid Gamehas reportedly morphed into a new spinoff TV series.
When we first learned ofNetflix’s plans for renowned director David Fincher (Seven,Mindhunter,Alien3) to take onSquid Game,it was understood that it would be a remake set in the US. It was also suggested that it’d be a movie.
However, it has now been claimed that it’ll instead be a new spin-off TV series for thestreaming service, and tie-in with the hugely popular Korean original.
Squid Game: America, as it is reportedly called, is not official yet, but Hollywood insider Daniel Richtman has posted some details on hisPatreon site(viaWorld of Reel). Filming, he claims, will start in late 2025.
According toThe Playlist, Fincher has even tasked Dennis Kelly (Utopia) to craft the script already.

Of course,Squid Gamefans won’t have to wait that long for more of the multi-award winning drama. Season 2 will premiere on Netflix on Boxing Day this year – 26 December 2024.
It has also beenpreviously announced that a third and final seasonwill follow next year. The show’s creator, Hwang Dong-hyuk, has confirmed that Gi-hun’s story will end in the last episode of the run. However, now it seems you’ll be able to continue with more deadly fun with the US follow-up taking over.
The second season of reality show Squid Game: The Challenge will also reportedly start production soon. If that’s the case, we should see it appear on Netflix sometime in 2025 – likely to fill the gap between Dong-hyuk’s second and third seasons.
