A teaser trailer has been unveiled as the second season of Netflix’s global hit Squid Game approaches its release on December 26.

Netflix released the teaser poster, trailer, and press stills for Squid Game Season 2 on Friday.

This season follows Gi Hun (played by Lee Jung Jae), the winner of the original deadly contest, as he abandons his plans for a new life in America and returns to the game, driven by a desire for revenge. As the lethal games recommence, audiences can expect an intense showdown between Gi Hun and the enigmatic Front Man (Lee Byung Hun).

The teaser poster features Gi Hun once again in his iconic green tracksuit, decorated with the number 456, standing defiantly at the forefront of the participants.

In stark contrast, the Front Man, previously shrouded in mystery behind a mask, now reveals his face. He is positioned with his back to the pink-clad guards, stirring speculation about upcoming plot twists.

The teaser trailer captures the first season’s eerie charm, showcasing contestants posing for photos to Smile’s unsetting, upbeat mechanical tune. Unlike his cheerful demeanor in Season 1, Gi Hun’s expressionless gaze into the camera is particularly striking, hinting at his character’s evolution.

A notable change this season is the introduction of a voting system after each game, allowing participants to decide whether to continue.

After the first game, Red Light, Green Light, and Gi Hun exclaim, “I’ve played this game before!” during the critical vote on whether to continue. Meanwhile, the Front Man observes keenly, setting the stage for an anticipated conflict between the two characters.

The star-studded cast of Squid Game Season 2 includes Lee Jung Jae, Lee Byung Hun, Im Si Wan, Kang Ha Neul, Wi Ha Joon, Park Gyu Young, Lee Jin Wook, Park Sung Hoon, Yang Dong Geun, and Kang Ae Shim. Mark your calendars for December 26, when it premieres exclusively on Netflix.
