On Tuesday, June 14, Netflix announced that it was taking the dramatization and turning it into a reality show titled “Squid Game: The Challenge.” The massive entertainment company is promoting the show as the largest reality competition ever made. Netflix said the reality show will feature 456 contestants who will work to win a massive $4.56 million — the most ever in a reality television show.
Netflix stated that while the 10-episode reality show is based on the original series, it has at least one distinguishing difference. There’s just one difference, instead of dying when if they are eliminated, the only consequence will be lost prize money.
Netflix said casting is now open to English-speaking people over 21 years old. If you’re interested in producers considering you as a candidate, you can register at SquidGameCasting.com.
