Is Squid Game coming back for series two?
Given the success of Squid Game, it's perhaps unsurprising that the creator behind the thriller, Hwang Dong-hyuk, has been asked whether he could be set to bring back the show for more episodes.
In an interview with Variety, he responded to the question by explaining: "I don't have well developed plans for Squid Game 2. It is quite tiring just thinking about it. But if I were to do it, I would certainly not do it alone. I'd consider using a writers' room and would want multiple experienced directors."
