Considering this is Play octopusa few characters have been killed and we won’t see them next season. These include Gong Yoo’s salesman who shot himself in the opening episodes. But perhaps the most shocking of them is Lee Seo-hwan’s Jung-bae (player 390), who was shot and killed in the Season 2 finale. Given that there is still a continuing narrative and many players left in the game, we can expect to see a lot of the cast reprising their roles in Season 3, including:

  • Lee Jung-jae as Seong Gi-hun

  • Wi Ha-joon as Hwang Jun-ho

  • Lee Byung-hun as Hwang In-ho

  • Jo Yu-ri as Kim Jun-hee (Player 222)

  • Kang Ae-shim as Jang Geum-ja (player 149)

  • Park Sung-hoon as Hyun-ju (player 120)

  • Yang Dong-geun as Park Yong-sik (player 007)

  • Chae Kook-hee as Seon-nyeo (Player 044)

  • Im Si-wan as Lee Myung-gi (Player 333)

Things were already pretty bad, but there’s no doubt they could get even worse after the failed rebellion—especially for Gi-hun. That is unless Jun-ho and his crew actually find the island where the games are held. For now, let’s expect a battle between Seong Gi-hun and those in charge, starting with the frontman.

Showrunner Hwang told Digital Spy: “If you look at seasons two and three from a larger perspective, it’s a single story, but in the middle of it there’s this inflection point that kind of throws the story in a different direction, which will be the end of season two .” He confirmed to EW that it was originally one story. “I originally envisioned seasons 2 and 3 as a single story,” he said. “That’s how I wrote it. But in the process it became too many episodes. So I thought it was better to split it into two.”

As we’ve already seen, season 2 ends with a major betrayal in the middle of an armed rebellion between Gi-hun and his allies and the people who run the Squid Game. Gi-hun’s best friend, Jung-bae, among others, ends up as collateral damage because Gi-hun doesn’t know that Young-il is actually the Front Man. And there’s a new, terrifying game waiting for players, one that looks a lot like Red Light, Green Light. Except it looks like there’s another doll waiting for them. “It’s actually a sneak peek of Cheol-su who, like Young-hee, is a new giant doll that we’ll be showing off in Season 3,” the creator/writer/director shared. Weekly entertainment. “And it’s also a hint of the most exciting battle in Season 3. So even though it hasn’t been shared yet, I hope everyone will be excited to meet Cheol-su and the new game.”

Hwang calls what’s next “second chapter of Gi-hun and Front Man’s showdown.” And the last one.
