This will be the director's “next big project”, according to the American press.
While season 2 of Squid Game is expected in a few weeks on Netflix, the old rumor of an English-language remake, by David Finchersuddenly resurfaces. And it seems to have never been so concrete.
It is the very serious site Deadline which announces today that it could even be the next project of the director of The Game.
Deadline assures that David Fincher is actively working on this remake after joining the project to develop it. It would no longer be a film, but a series, a format to which the filmmaker is not completely foreign, he who notably co-produced the SF animated anthology Love, Death & Robots Or House of Cards (already on Netflix).
Let us remember that David Fincher has a deal with the platform and if he could still shoot a film by then, the series Squid Game in English is “probably“what he should work on throughout 2025, indicates Deadline which writes:”In recent weeks, everything seemed to indicate that Squid Game would be his next big project“.
So when will the official announcement be made? Certainly not before the broadcast of the second season of the original series, which will be released on December 26, 2024 on Netflix.
