Summary
Squid Gameis one of the most popular shows of the past few years. The recent final season sparked a ton of discussion, as one would expect. The final scenes of Season 3 tease the USA version of this twisted game, pretty much confirming the dawn of theSquid Gameuniverse.
While fans may have mixed opinions about this approach, there’s no denying thatSquid Game USAis bound to be engagingin its own right. This show has a lot of potential to resonate with fans of the original, especially if it answers some of the biggest unanswered questions about this series.
7Will The VIPs Remain Consistent Across The Series?
Squid Game USA Could Make The VIPs Less Cringey
The VIPs werethe worst part ofSquid Game, even if the intention was for viewers to be disturbed and annoyed by their performance. With the dawn ofSquid Game USA, fans wonder whether the same VIPs will make an appearance.
Given the focus of this spinoff on international audiences, it’s clear that the acting of the VIPs won’t go out of its way to be so obviously terrible. If these original VIPs do make another appearance, fans can only hope that their performance doesn’t feel jarring when compared to others who are clearly adept at speaking English.
6Will Characters From The Original Series Appear?
The Survivors Could Make Cameos
Barring the characters who have died, there are still several people who are alive and may try to stop or aid the games from happening once again. The Front Man is an obvious pick here, with most fans feeling that aSquid Gamespinoff would feel inadequate without his presence.
His brother is far less likely to make the cut, although the child he’s adopted could be a fun inclusion. Another choice could be Gi-hun’s daughter. She might get suspicious after the Front Man’s appearance at her doorstep, compelling her to investigate the reason behind her father’s sudden demise.
5Will This Version Of The Games Take Place On An Island?
The Game Could Take Place In Another Location
The island made for a unique spot for the games to take place. It sparked a fun hunt to find the island, even if Hwang Jun-ho doesn’t do a lot after discovering the location of the games.
While another version of this twisted killing game set on an island can be viable for the United States, the hideout’s nature can change to make for a small yet fresh change. There are ample opportunities for this game to occur in a hidden facility that is deep underground, hidden in an abandoned location, or anything else along the same lines.
4What Children’s Games Will Be Featured?
Korean Games Might Be Out Of Place In A Show Based In The US
As engrossing as Cate Blanchett’s cameo was, seeing her play ddakjiwith a potential candidatedidn’t make a ton of sense. After all, a US-basedSquid Gameshould feature a focus on children’s games popular in the country, since both the audience and the characters in the show will be more familiar with them.
While there can be homages to the original show’s games, fans will vastly prefer it if the childhood games they’re familiar with make an appearance here. It can help make the games easier to understand, allowing viewers to get immersed in the stakes of these games as they wish for their favorite characters to survive.
3Will This Show Stretch For Multiple Seasons?
The Original Series Lost Some Allure Because Of Its Stretched Narrative
The first season ofSquid Gamewas incredible, but fans felt that the show lost some of its luster over time. While Season 2 was engrossing,the issues in Season 3were too large for most people to fathom.
With this in mind, it would be a smart move forSquid Game USAto focus on a single season that’s well-constructed with a proper ending. While this may not be all that unlikely, the arrival of aSquid Gameuniverse means that each spinoff can potentially last just one season so that fans don’t get burned out.
2Will The Spinoff Live Up To The Legacy Of The Original?
Convincing Fans To Give This Series A Shot Is Easier Said Than Done
One of the biggest questions aboutSquid Game USAis something that fans can predict from a mile away. The original series burst onto the scene and became one of the most popular shows of all time, which deserved all its critical praise.
By losing the novelty of a fresh debut,Squid Game USAwill already find itself fighting against the odds to enjoy the same level of success. Hopefully, if rumors are to be believed, then David Fincher’s brilliance will be more than enough to elevate this spinoff’s quality to new heights.
1Will The Voting System Make A Comeback?
A Unique Twist In Season 2 & 3
One of the more interesting additions to Season 2 and 3 was a voting system, where the contestants could decide their fate after every game. It hammered in the evils of greed, as several contestants were more than okay with letting the games go on anddooming other innocentsin the process.
It may have become slightly repetitive over the course of two seasons, but fans can’t deny that it helped the later seasons stand out somewhat from the original series. Whether this voting system will make a comeback inSquid Game USAis anyone’s guess.
