Kapanlagi.com - Speculation about the presence of an American version of SQUID GAME has resurfaced following the airing of the last episode of SQUID GAME season three. This issue was triggered by the appearance of Hollywood actress Cate Blanchett in one of the key scenes.
In the episode, Cate Blanchett appears as a new recruiter for the survival game, but this time the location is in Los Angeles. This appearance immediately sparked speculation that a spin-off series titled SQUID GAME: US will be released.
In response to the increasingly wild rumors circulating, the creator of SQUID GAME, Hwang Dong Hyuk, finally spoke out and provided his official explanation regarding this rumor. Here’s the full explanation.

The airing of the final episode of SQUID GAME Season 3 introduced an unexpected element. Oscar-winning actress Cate Blanchett made a cameo appearance as a recruiter in the city of Los Angeles.
Fans then linked this appearance as a pathway for a new story in the SQUID GAME universe, particularly for the United States version.
Several international media outlets have reinforced this rumor by reporting that Cate Blanchett will be the lead in the spin-off. In fact, David Fincher's name has also been mentioned as a potential director.
Other rumors suggest that the shooting process for this project will begin in December 2025, strengthening the suspicion that the American version of SQUID GAME is being secretly prepared.

In his exclusive interview on June 30, 2025, Hwang Dong Hyuk provided an official clarification. He stated that the news about a spin-off starring Cate Blanchett and directed by David Fincher has no basis.
"It is completely unfounded. It seems to be just a rumor. I haven't heard anything about it officially, just read it through articles," said Hwang Dong Hyuk.
Hwang explained that the choice of Cate Blanchett was indeed intentional as part of an artistic decision. He wanted to close the trilogy with a different tone by featuring a female actor as the recruiter.
The director also mentioned that Cate Blanchett's appearance is part of a dramatic concept to illustrate that the game is not over even though the main character, Seong Gi Hun, has fallen.

Although denying the circulating rumors, Hwang Dong Hyuk does not rule out the possibility of a spin-off in the future. He admitted that he could make a sequel if given the opportunity.
"It's too vague to say whether I will do it or not. I think I might try it someday if the opportunity arises," he concluded.
However, Hwang hinted that if a spin-off is truly made, he is more interested in presenting a story that is not as dark as the main version.
Q: Is it true that there will be an American version of SQUID GAME?

Q: Who is Cate Blanchett in SQUID GAME Season 3?

Q: Will SQUID GAME have a season 4?
