Squid Game's second season has a new trailer, and if you haven't watched the first then do yourself a favour and avoid spoiling it. Netflix's biggest-ever launch and a global smash hit, Squid Game followed 456 indebted competitors taking part in a series of deadly childrens' games for huge cash prizes, all observed and controlled by a shadowy cabal of, basically, rich sadists.
The first season ended with the victory of player 456 Seong Gi-hun, played by Lee Jung-jae, who walks away with a giant cash prize that should solve all his life issues: but he's so traumatised by what he's experienced he vows revenge. Squid Game 2 is set three years after the first series and sees Gi-hun return to the games alongside new competitors, with the trailer focusing on how competitors can vote after each game to end the events or continue for bigger prizes: Gi-hun is desperately trying to help his fellow players and make them understand the nature of the games, but not entirely successfully.
