The Snowpiercer Season 2 trailer was released today as part of the show's appearance at New York Comic-Con, alongside the news that the TNT series will return for its second season on January 25th at 9pm ET/PT. The TV series adaptation of the Bong Joon-ho film was long-delayed but finally made its premiere this past May, at which point production on Season 2 was already underway. That’s how the Season 1 finale was able to tease the arrival of Sean Bean as Mr. Wilford, a character rumored to be dead throughout the show’s …
From show creator Graeme Manson (Orphan Black) and inspired by both the graphic novels and the original film from director Bong Joon ho, the TNT drama Snowpiercer is set more than seven years after the world as we knew it became a frozen wasteland and those that were left stepped onto a perpetually moving train with 1,001 cars that circles the globe. Even though there is a very clear and strict class and social division between passengers, when a grisly murder threatens to ignite an already tenuous structure, the powerful head of hospitality, Melanie Cavill (Jennifer Connelly), turns to …

Snowpiercer roars onto TV with a fun-enough pilot that lacks some the spark of the original comic and the Bong Joon-ho film.
It's hard to believe Snowpiercer the 2013 movie and Snowpiercer the 2020 TNT series are adapted from the same source material, the graphic novel Le Transperceneige (re-released in English in 2014, with new installments continuing the story into 2019). The former Snowpiercer is a distinctly dark, brutal, realist adaptation directed by Oscar-winning director Bong Joon Ho and starring Chris Evans, Tilda Swinton, and Ed Harris. The latter is a new TV show from Graeme Manson (Orphan Black) and sees Jennifer Connelly and Daveed Diggs leading an international cast in a more technicolor, melodramatic spin which demands patience …
TNT’s long-awaited post-apocalyptic sci-fi series Snowpiercer is finally going to premiere, and the good news is we’ll get to watch it a few weeks earlier. Originally set to debut on May 31, the decision was made to bump the show’s premiere up two weeks to May 17. “Snowpiercer is one of the most anticipated original series of 2020 and in this climate, viewers are craving thrilling, engaging, edge-of-your-seat content that speaks to them on a deeper level,” says Brett Weitz, general manager for TNT, TBS and truTV in an official press …

In 2020, nobody embodies that sentiment more than South Korean filmmaker Bong Joon Ho, whose film Parasite is nominated for six Academy Awards, including both Best Picture and Best International Film. During the two-hour presentation, featuring clips from all of director Bong’s films, the filmmaker (accompanied by his translator Sharon Choi) spoke in-…
Although it's well known the movie is merely “inspired by” the graphic novels, there are several aspects of the story that are better on the page.
TNT releases a brand-new trailer for its Snowpiercer TV show starring Daveed Diggs and Jennifer Connelly, confirming it for a spring premiere date.
Perhaps fitting for a series about a never-ending train ride through the apocalypse, TNT's Snowpiercer has had a heck of a journey to the finish line, but the sci-fi TV show is finally set to hit screens with an official release date. During WarnerMedia's TCA presentation, TNT announced that it will launch the series inspired by the 'Le Transperceneige' graphic novels and Bong Joon Ho's 2013 film adaptation on Sunday, May 31, at 9 pm ET/PT. The long-developed series stars Jennifer Connelly and Daveed Diggs and has had a five-year path to …

Snowpiercer was one of 2013's biggest sleeper hits, and its upcoming TV adaptation has understandably caused lots of concern
A new Snowpiercer series is set to start this year - but how will it compare to the movie from 2013?
What’s this? Sean Bean is actually making it to the second season of a prestige television drama? In this case, he’s sliding in on a technicality. After shattering our hearts into tiny pieces with his brief role on Game of Thrones, Bean will be joining the cast of TNT’s Snowpiercer as a Season 2 series regular alongside Season 1 stars Jennifer Connelly and Daveed Diggs. The details of Bean’s character are being kept under wraps, so for now we’ll just have to wait and watch the show to find out, which is set to premiere …
