12 Extreme Rules The Squid Game Cast Had To Follow

  • The Squid Game cast may be incredibly famous, but they definitely earned it - not only with their incredible performances, but with the amount of rules they had to follow and work they had to do to be part of this special show.
    Working on the most successful show ever on Netflix was definitely exciting and we’d think the actors would want to talk about all the cool stuff they got to do - but that was a major no no, the actors couldn’t even do any interviews with press unless it was okay with the production. The actors also had to commit to staying in shape - if they didn’t, they could risk not being able to carry out the highly physical scenes and since the actors didn’t have stunt doubles, this was a serious issue. One actor had to stay in shape AND gain nearly forty pounds! While it helped the show, the actor still suffered quite a bit physically because of the intense demands. Working on a project this ambitious takes a lot of time and concentration - but that didn’t stop one actor from taking on a major role while still writing his university thesis! That actor was allowed to do both, but he had to rise to the occasion and commit all his energy to the show when he was needed.
    One actor couldn’t speak with their normal accent - they had to spend time training with an accent coach in order to sound how they needed to for the show. It may not have been easy, but committing to all these rules was a major contributor to making the show as amazing as it is!

      I didn't hate him, I hated Sang-Woo. Deok Su was just a typical "I"m the alpha here" guy, but Sang-Woo was calculated, manipulative & evil.
      SPOILERS(I elaborate, why I hate Sang-Woo):
      He's probably more complex, but at the begining, he seemed nice to Ali & Gi-Hun, but at the Honeycomb game, he lost my liking for him & at Marbles, I started to hate him. Before Squid Game, I was completely dispised him & basically prayed for Gi.Hun to kill him. It didn't happen & his suicide didn't make me feel pity for him one bit.

      yeah honestly people treat it like some impressive show of heroism but i think that it's just too much. no show is worth losing health, throwing up and exhaustion. To me it's not heroic, it's just badly planned. If your production requires actors to be exhausted, have short breaks and work ungodly hours, you're just bad at planning. It's just a show, it's better to sacrifice a few "wow" effects if it means actors won't have to get sick and strain their bodies

    No hate, I’m glad this channel is doing it’s part to bring translated content for Western viewers that don’t have the time or Korean fluency to watch/read interviews. I am just genuinely curious as to why Anupam Tripathi was the only actor name mentioned while others were referred to as only their character names. Please acknowledge them because I’m sure “the actor that plays Deoksu” (Heo Sungtae) and “the Saebyeok actress” (Jung Hoyeon) worked hard to have their names credited too!

      I get the feeling they intentionally avoided saying their names because they were worried about mispronouncing them. Indian names are a bit more natural to english speakers - but even so, thats no excuse, since they could pronounce the characters names (granted, they heard them throughout the show - but it wouldnt be hard to find videos where the actors names are said aloud)

    To be fair, a lot of these really aren't at all unusual for actors. Signing contracts that say they can't talk about their work with people outside of the project, training with an accent coach, filming at different times during the day and keeping their bodies in a particular shape are all things which are pretty standard practice in this line of work and are by no means "extreme rules".

I'm sure they have to sign that they or family won't sue if they get hurt or killed. Their agents/managers probably hate that lol. I heard Tom Cruise does most of his stunts but he's so famous I'm sure he demands it & has a way around it. He's a weirdo tho. Lol.
