Squid Game: The VIP Challenge is officially on its way and Netflix has confirmed the famous faces stepping into the arena.
But while the streamer is clearly hoping to raise the stakes, not everyone is convinced a celebrity edition is what viewers were crying out for.
Netflix announces cast of Squid Game: The VIP Challenge
Back in 2023, Netflix expanded the global phenomenon Squid Game with a reality spin-off inspired by the smash-hit Korean drama. The competition series saw real-life contestants tackle high-pressure challenges modelled on the original show, all for the eye-watering $4.56 million prize.
After two seasons featuring civilian players, Netflix has now unveiled a celebrity version. The line-up was revealed in a promo video released on Tuesday, March 3, and it includes a very familiar face for UK audiences.
Spice Girls star Mel B has signed up to take part. In the teaser, the celebrity contestants appear dressed as the masked VIPs from the drama before dramatically removing their masks to face the camera.
“The VIP’s have entered the game,” the on-screen caption reads.
