So, ‘Squid Game' Season 4? Don't Rule It Out

Squid Game Squid Game has ended with its somewhat odd, six-episode season that essentially operates as the other half of season 2, just with a season 3 badge. It is a pretty conclusive end to the current arc, but this is the modern streaming era. This is Netflix. This is a showrunner that is getting paid millions upon millions to make this series. So no, we can't rule out a season 4 of Squid Game. This is not just random speculation, but it comes from creator Hwang Dong-hyuk himself in a recent interview with EW. It's mainly about another season that's a prequel, which wouldn't be labeled season 4, I'm guessing, but he also speaks to that as well. Here's his pitch for that: So, that's an intermission between seasons 1 and 2, and if that did end up existing, a series without an actual Squid Game being played, it would probably just be called 'Squid Game: Gi-hun" or something like that. The advantage there would be that it would bring back some of its cast. You also might think it could do something like provide out-of-game backstories for some of season 2 and 3's players. But a sequel? Season 4? Not ruled out either: Squid Game This is not a question of whether or not Netflix would agree to this. They would in a second. Squid Game season 1 remains the most-watched show in Netflix history. Season 2 didn't get that high, but it's still in the top 5. Season 3 could go up or down, we'll see. But it will be high, and Netflix, of course, is going to want any more Squid Game projects they can get their hands on, especially if the original creator is willing to return, as he's the key to the whole idea. Regardless, if this does manifest, it will almost certainly be years until we see something new from Squid Game. It's taken us almost four years to get through three seasons (sort of two), and these ideas are still nebulous and not in production. But like Hwang, we shouldn't rule it out.
