Alice in Borderland became one of the most-watched series on Netflix. And due to the immense support from fans worldwide, the thrilling drama gets a second season. The highly anticipated series aired its second season on 22 December last year.
Fans are excited to see what heart-stopping adventures the characters will go through this season. Moreover, the second season promises more gruesome and sadistic games. Only the best will survive!
A drama won’t be successful without some of these elements: the script, directing, cinematography, music score and acting. What makes a good series is a mix of everything. Hence, if the actors are all famously known for their skills, the drama will definitely hit stardom.
Therefore, it’s not shocking that Alice in Borderland has an impressive line of actors and actresses. Since the drama has a lot of action scenes, you might wonder— how they can pull it off so effortlessly.
Do you know the reason? They acted in a tokusatsu before!
What is tokusatsu?
