The final episode of ‘Squid Game’ season 3 delivered a major surprise that has fans talking about the future of the hit Netflix series. Academy Award winner Cate Blanchett made an unexpected appearance in the season finale, playing a role similar to the recruiter character from earlier seasons. Her cameo appears to set the stage for a long-rumored US spin-off of the Korean survival drama.
Blanchett’s scene takes place in Los Angeles, California, where she is shown instructing a homeless person to play the game of Ddakji. Just like the original recruiter played by Gong Yoo, she delivers brutal slaps to the face when the player loses. The actress is credited as making a “Special Appearance” in the episode, with Jesse Saler playing the homeless man opposite her.
