Netflix shuts down rumors of Leonardo DiCaprio appearing in Squid Game 3
You know what they say—if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Netflix has finally responded to rumors about Leonardo DiCaprio starring in Squid Game season 3.
In 2022, the writer-director of ‘Squid Game,’ Hwang Dong-Hyuk, expressed his wish to include DiCaprio in the series. This led to reports that DiCaprio had filmed a secret appearance for the show.
However, Netflix has officially denied the rumors in a statement that said: "The rumors are completely false. Reports of Leonardo DiCaprio’s involvement in Squid Game Season 3 are entirely unfounded.”
Meanwhile, season 2 of ‘Squid Game’ started streaming on Netflix last week and became the first series to debut at No. 1 in all 93 countries where Netflix is available. Season 3 is expected to premiere later this year.
