Could the Titanic star really step into the deadly games? Or is it all just a wild fan fantasy? Let’s dive into the buzz surrounding the latest teaser, shocking rumors, and what lies ahead in the world’s most brutal survival game.
Squid Game Season 3 Teaser
Netflix's worldwide sensation Squid Game continues to thrive with an engaging second season, further cementing its legendary reputation. Although the Season 2 finale left many viewers eager for more, the creators promptly released the initial teaser and poster for the third installment, hinting at a darker and more intense storyline.
“Everyone greet Chul-su.” "Squid Game 3 will be released in 2025," the streaming giant revealed on New Year’s Day alongside a 15-second teaser clip.
Is Leonardo DiCaprio Joining The Squid Game Season 3?
Although the announcement had everyone buzzing, rumors began circulating about the casting for the third season, with one mentioning Oscar-winning actor Leonardo DiCaprio.
Various sources have reported that the Killers of the Flower Moon actor might join the cast of Squid Game season 3.
According to reports, DiCaprio is reportedly set to make an unexpected cameo, with his filming taking place under tight secrecy last year. Although his part was described as small, additional information was kept under wraps to prevent spoilers.
Nonetheless, it appears that the reports are not accurate. Netflix has officially addressed the speculation regarding Leonardo DiCaprio’s role in the series and stated, “The rumors are entirely untrue.” According to Soompi, claims of Leonardo DiCaprio participating in Squid Game Season 3 are completely baseless.

Squid Game Creator’s Statement
Significantly, the primary origin of the rumors originates from 2022, when Squid Game creator Hwang Dong Hyuk hinted at his admiration for the actor. During a press conference held by Netflix, Dong Hyuk responded to a question about the possibility of any Hollywood actors joining the Emmy-winning show in the future by stating, "There will not be any recognized Hollywood actor in Season 2."
That isn’t part of the plan, and if the situation changes, perhaps in Season 3—but for Season 2, it's still taking place in Korea. Leonardo DiCaprio mentioned that he’s a huge admirer of ‘Squid Game,’ so perhaps if the opportunity arises, we could invite him to play.

In the initial teaser for Season 3, viewers saw the arena where three new contestants encounter the ‘Red Light, Green Light’ doll facing away from them. Soon after, the teaser shows a boy doll on the opposite side of the tracks, looking directly at her.
