Squid Game: The Challenge will be sparing no expense on its contestants if the brand-new full-length trailer is anything to go by.
I mean, of course, there won’t be any deaths as depicted in the fictional show Squid Game it was inspired by, but the short snippets of the dramatic, nail-biting challenges featured in the upcoming competitive series look undeniably stressful. Of course, it is this very stress factor that makes for this to be an absolute must-watch when it hits Netflix screens in November.
More than a year after they announced the series, the first trailer starts with a voice bellowing on the loudspeaker: “Attention, all players, it is not time for the next game,” before the light flashes on to show a large room full of bunk beds where the contestants will (get very little) rest.
The players are also seen entering a plethora of challenges, many of which were depicted in the Hwang Dong-hyuk-directed series. Some look excited, while others look like they’ve gotten themselves in for more than they have bargained. As well as the terror of looming challenges, the trailer also shows us that there’s a generous dose of drama between the contestants, with some eyebrow-raising backstabbing involved.
