Hwang Dong-hyuk discusses the sudden death of Thanos in Squid Game season 2 and how it will continue to impact the story.
This article contains major spoilers for Squid Game season 2 . Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-hyuk explains why season 2 's most divisive character died so early in the season. With its second installment, the characters in Squid Game expanded to include a mother and son duo, a marine, and a YouTuber who lost his money in a scam, among several others. But the breakout is arguably Choi Seung-hyun, who played Thanos .
The purple-haired antagonist is stabbed and bleeds out in a surprisingly quick scene, given his centrality in many of season 2's episodes. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Hwang shared that he was a fan of Choi's performance. He also acknowledged that the death of Choi Seung-hyun, better known as Thanos, is surprising. Still, in the quote below, Hwang says that it was ultimately the right time for Thanos to die and teased that his presence will still be felt in the upcoming episodes: As for Thanos… he’s one of my favorite characters, too! I believe that was the right time to see him off. Although I will admit, I do think the death was sudden. It was very intense, which was the right way at just the right time for him to go. The way he leaves the story, if you watch until the third season, it will almost feel as if he’s still there in some ways in terms of how he affects the plot. What Thanos' Death Means For Squid Game It's A Jolt In some ways, the most surprising part of Thanos' death is how abrupt it is. Well before the Squid Game season 2 finale, and as Gi-hun's plan for rebellion is taking shape, the scene-stealing character gets a fork to the throat that pays off some of the season's more minor animosities. It's unexpected because Thanos seems poised to be one of the characters that could make it to the final four.
