Let’s say they remade the entire series but with the cast consisting of Westerners and they’re speaking English (the original one takes place in South Korea with a Korean cast with subtitles), but the thing is that the actual “Squid Game” is a Korean children’s game which is not something that resonates with US culture, so would an actual American remake really succeed or fail?
They will have to change up the games to what kids play in the US. Then add the death twist for the game losers. The billionaires making poor people kill each other for entertainment stays the same though. Cultural dynamics with how players act will also have to change.
