‘Squid Game: The Challenge’ Season 2 Applications Are Now Open — Here’s How To Apply

If you haven’t heard of Squid Game: The Challenge, where have you been? The reality competition series premiered on Netflix on Nov. 11 and it’s already become a fan-favorite show. It’s based on the Emmy-winning drama Squid Game and follows 456 contestants as they compete in a series of child-like games for a chance to win the $4.56 million grand prize. Since this is a competition, things get intense during the episodes as contestants try their best not to get eliminated.

With so much money up for grabs, I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one who’s considered applying for future seasons of Squid Game: The Challenge. $4.56 million is a lot of money and could make most of the problems I face today vanish. Though the idea of being on Squid Game: The Challenge seems far-fetched, it’s something I might actually consider now that applications for Season 2 are officially open!

Yes, you heard that right. You can now apply to be on Season 2 of Squid Game: The Challenge and try your luck at competing for the $4.56 million jackpot.

How can I apply for season 2 of Squid Game: The challenge?

On Dec. 6, Netflix announced that Squid Game: The Challenge has been renewed for Season 2. The streamer also revealed that casting for the upcoming season is now open.

All you have to do is fill out the online form, which can be found at SquidGameCasting.com. Once you’re on the site, choose either “U.S. Casting,” “U.K. Casting,” or “Global Casting” (for those who don’t reside in the U.S. or U.K.). From there, fill in information such as your name, birth date, and place of residence. The form also asks some eligibility questions to ensure you’re able to compete on the show if picked.

After completing the registration portion of the form, you then have to upload a video telling the show about yourself, why you want to be on Squid Game: The Challenge, what your overall game plan would be if chosen for the show, and what you would do with the $4.56 million cash prize if you won.

But wait, that’s not all. You also have to upload a recent headshot and full length image of yourself.

Once all of this is done, just submit your application and cross your fingers that you’ll get a call from a casting director.

So, do you have what it takes to win Squid Game: The Challenge? Visit the casting website to shoot your shot. Good luck!
