The truth about Leonardo DiCaprio's role in Squid Game

On the morning of January 1, Korean media reported that season 3 of "Squid Game" will invite actor Leonardo DiCaprio to participate.

On the morning of January 1, the news that Leonardo DiCaprio will appear in part 3 of the hit series "Squid Game" caused a stir. A news site revealed that the American actor had completed filming in the US with the information kept strictly confidential.

However, according to MK Korea, Netflix has denied the information that Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio will appear in "Squid Game 3". A Netflix official said that it is a baseless rumor.

In 2022, at an awards event, director Hwang Dong Hyuk joked that he wanted to invite Leonardo DiCaprio to the cast when he learned that the "Titanic" actor was a fan of the film.

"There will be no Hollywood actors appearing in part 2 of the series, the film will still keep the setting in Korea. If there is any change, it will probably be in part 3. Leonardo DiCaprio once said that he is a loyal fan of Squid Game, so if there is a chance, we might invite him to join this series," director Hwang shared in 2022.

This promise once made the audience look forward to it and was repeated every time the poster for the new season of "Squid Game" was revealed.

However, there are still arguments that Leonardo DiCaprio should not participate in an entertaining, controversial project with a cast that has been involved in scandals like "Squid Game".

Season 2 of "Squid Game" ranked as Netflix's most-watched series in its first week of release. In its first week, the work recorded 68 million views worldwide, with a total viewing time of 487.6 million hours.

Netflix announced that it will release season 3 this year. In season 3, the producer revealed the appearance of a new doll, predicted to be the boyfriend of the female doll familiar to the audience in the previous 2 seasons.

Following part 1, part 2 of "Squid Game" follows the main character Gi Hun (Lee Jung Jae) - the winner of part 1 - who refused to move to America to return to participate in the game again, to find the manipulator behind this deadly game, to avenge the deceased.

After airing, the film caused a sensation but also received mixed opinions about the script and the acting of some supporting roles. Stars such as Lee Jung Jae, Lee Byung Hun, T.O.P, Song Young Chang were constantly reminded of scandals and uproars about personality, ethics and even the law.
