The third season of Squid Game has just landed on Netflix, signaling a wave of internet activity with images, clips, and posts revealing the show’s most shocking twists in its dramatic conclusion. Interestingly, this season’s most significant spoiler doesn’t alter the plot line in any way. The final season concludes with a notable celebrity cameo, potentially hinting at the much-anticipated American Squid Game spin-off!

**Spoilers for the final scene in Squid Game Season 3 Episode 6 “Humans Are…”, now streaming on Netflix**

This season brings an end to the tale of Seong Gi-hun (played by Lee Jung-jae), the Korean gambler-turned-Player 456, originally introduced in the first season. After emerging victorious from the harrowing games in 2021, Gi-hun used his enormous winnings to support the families of his friends and pursue those responsible for organizing the deadly games. In the second season, Gi-hun rejoined the games under the number 456 to attempt stopping them. He orchestrated a rebellion against the game creators, which eventually fell apart in the previous season’s closing moments. As Squid Game Season 3 progresses, it follows a shattered Gi-hun navigating the final rounds amidst a mix of enemies and allies.

We won’t reveal who survives, who perishes, or the wild challenges devised by series creator/writer/director Hwang Dong-hyuk for Squid Game‘s concluding season. You can enjoy the story as it unravels. However, we are going to reveal the notable Oscar-winning celebrity they’ve brought on to portray Gong Yoo’s American counterpart—the iconic ddakji-playing Recruiter.

Squid Game is ending and Squid Game is just beginning.

Squid Game 3 Spoilers: What That Cate Blanchett Cameo Means For a Future Squid Game Spin-off

Squid Game Season 3 ends in Los Angeles, the city that Gi-hun’s beloved daughter Seong Ga-yeong (Jo A-in) now calls home. While one character — okay, fine, spoilers, it’s Lee Byung-hun‘s Front Man — is chauffeured around the heart of Hollywood, we notice a woman in a sharp suit playing ddakji with an unhoused man in an alley. When the bedraggled man loses, she slaps him, hard.

A close up reveals that the American version of Gong Yoo’s Salesman is none other than two-time Oscar-winner Cate Blanchett! She and the Front Man make eye contact, suggesting the two know each other. Her appearance also very heavily implies that, yes, Netflix is making an American Squid Game spin-off, and soon!

While there have been rumors for years about Netflix’s ambitions to expand Squid Game with international spin-offs, the most concrete reporting came last year, when Deadline revealed David Fincher was attached to develop an English-language series set within Hwang Dong-hyuk’s universe. Dennis Kelly is reportedly attached as a writer. Everything else has been mostly rumors and speculation.

Ending the original Korean Squid Game with Cate Blanchett trolling the streets of Los Angeles, looking for poor desperate souls to bring into the games, seems to confirm she will be reprising this role in a subsequent USA-based series. For context, Gong Yoo is similarly one of the biggest names in Korean cinema, known internationally for his work in Train to Busan. So tapping a Hollywood heavyweight as his successor feels perfect.

Netflix hasn’t yet officially announced the American version of Squid Game, but Cate Blanchett’s big cameo has set off a countdown for one.

Squid Game Seasons 1-3 are now streaming on Netflix.
