SQUID GAME DIRECTOR SLAMS LEBRON JAMES OVER COMMENT ABOUT SHOW’S ENDING

‘Squid Game’ director, Hwang Dong-hyuk has fired back at basketball champion Lebron James over a comment he made about the show earlier this month.⁣

In a recently surfaced video filmed on October 12, 2021, James was caught in a chat expressing his disappointment at the series’ ending.⁣

“Yeah, I didn’t like the ending though. I know they start it off with a season two but, like, get on the f flight and go see your daughter, Bro. Like what are you doing,” James said.⁣

Well, it appears the series’ director felt ticked off by the viral video and expressed his dissatisfaction in an interview with The Guardian.⁣

“Have you seen Space Jam 2? LeBron James is cool and can say what he wants. I respect that. I’m very thankful he watched the whole series. But I wouldn’t change my ending.⁣

“That’s my ending. If he has his own ending that would satisfy him, maybe he could make his own sequel. I’ll check it out and maybe send him a message saying, ‘I liked your whole show, except the ending,” he added.⁣

The Korean filmmaker also revealed in the interview that he was already in talks with streaming giant, Netflix following the massive success of the first show.⁣

“Of course there is talk. That’s inevitable because it’s been such a success. I am considering it. I have a very high-level picture in my mind, but I’m not going to work on it straight away. There’s a film I really want to make. I’m thinking about which to do first.”⁣

The Korean-language show took the world by storm in September with Netflix confirming that over 111 million household views.⁣

After a game on Tuesday 12 October, American basketball player James was overheard discussing Squid Game with his colleague Anthony Davis.⁣
