Netflix has officially unveiled the 12 main cast members set to take center stage in Squid Game Season 3. This upcoming season will conclude the gripping saga of Seong Gi-hun, played by Lee Jung-jae, as he continues his mission to dismantle the deadly games.
The announcement also makes history, as Squid Game Season 3 marks the shortest gap between seasons for a Netflix scripted action series, a welcome change after the three-year wait between the first two seasons.
