On the other hand, Gal Gadot did not have much to say as the Wonder Woman star did not watch Squid Game or any other Korean show or movie in the past 15 years. The actor recalled watching an intense Korean movie years ago and revealed the film's story was very different. She, therefore, called Korean content sophisticated which is doing universally very well.

Dwayne Johnson, on the other hand, said he loves it when something just hit the screens and go popular in no time. While the Black Adam actor did not watch the show, he was still happy to see people turning to their phones for Squid Game. He also recalled the hilarious incident between the show creator Hwang Dong-Hyuk and basketball player LeBron James. 

The much-awaited OTT release of Red Notice is scheduled for November 12 on Netflix.
