Season 3 of Squid Game Landed today on Netflix and many of you have waited for the weekend to throw yourself on it. A particularly successful season, unlike a second batch which had frustrated us on many plans, and which had kept several surprises in reserve.

While the Front Man (Lee Byung-Hun) is in Los Angeles to pay a last tribute to the courage of player 456, he hears a familiar noise around an alley: that of a Ddakji game. We thus discover that the organization uses the same methods in the United States-and surely all over the world-to recruit participants. So there is not only one play arena …
The most surprising here is not the discovery that the game continues, but the identity of the recruiter at the DDAKJI, or rather the recruiter. This is the Oscar -winning actress Cate Blanchett ! Even if we know the actress ready to accept unexpected roles, like Borderlands, We must admit that no one could expect to see it on the screen looking at Squid Game. From there to imagine that we will be entitled to a spin-off around this American edition with Cate Blanchett as a mistress of ceremonies … Besides, the look she exchanges with the front man can be understood as a Silent relay passage Between two masters of the game.
Not the first surprise cameo
Nevertheless, if the presence of a star like Cate Blanchett remains completely unexpected, this is not the first time that the series has made us blow the cameo at the end of the season. Indeed, long before it has a role of primary importance in season 2, then 3, it must be remembered that it is indeed during one of the last scenes of the first season that The Front Man took off his mask and that we discovered Lee Byung-Hun. A twist that had not been reproduced in season 2 for a fairly simple reason, it was a plot cut in half and it had no conclusion.
So obviously, far from us the idea of comparing the filmography of the two actors, but the guiding idea remains the same: to place a face immediately identifiable by the spectator for the final. Whether here, Cate Blanchett precisely underlines this world reputation acquired by Squid Game over time and budget more substantial. To see if this will only remain just cameo or not … but we can assume that Netflix has already thought about the question.
To see if it will only remain a simple cameo or not … because we do not forget that the information had leaked that David Fincher would prepare an English version of the show. We can therefore imagine that this sequence intends to serve as a bridge between the two series and that Cate will be one of the central characters.
