At a Netflix-hosted congratulatory press conference in Seoul on Friday, when asked if any known Hollywood actor would star in “Squid Game” Season 2, Hwang said: “There will be no known Hollywood actor in Season 2. That’s not in the plan and if the stage changes, maybe in Season 3 – but for Season 2, it is still set in Korea. Leonardo DiCaprio did say he’s a big fan of ‘Squid Game,’ so maybe if time or chances allow, we can ask him to join the games.
The “Squid Game” team was out in force at the press meet to celebrate the unprecedented success at the Emmy Awards, except lead actor winner Lee Jung-jae, who was absent due to the North American premiere of his directorial debut “The Hunt” at the Toronto International Film Festival. “Squid Game” premiered as a Netflix original almost exactly year ago and it has made waves globally being the first Korean drama to rule Netflix’s top 10 weekly most-watched TV show charts globally in 94 countries, with a whopping 1.65 billion hours of viewing in the first 28 days after its Sept. 17 premiere, according to the streamer.
