SNOWPIERCER 2:
Based on the 1982 French graphic novel Le Transperceneige and reboot of the 2013 film of the same name directed by Bong Joon-ho, “Snowpiercer” is a post-apocalyptic dystopian thriller television drama series adapted by Jacques Lob, Benjamin Legrand, and Jean-Marc Rochette that premiered on May 17, 2020, on TNT.
This version picks up nearly seven years after the world froze over and Earth’s last 3,000 survivors climbed aboard Snowpiercer — a perpetually moving train that circles the globe, chewing up snow and ice to make water, grow food, and keep its passengers alive.
Built by an eccentric millionaire called Mr. Wilford and made up of 1,001 cars, the train is neatly divided into class systems that mirror most modern capitalist societies: The richest ticket buyers live in luxury near the almighty engine, and each subsequent group sees their quality of life limited to what they can afford, from the working middle class back to the penniless stowaways stuck in a windowless caboose.
The latest season of “Snowpiercer” made its debut on Monday, January 25, at 9 P.M on TNT.
It’s clear that the season will be sticking on the train for the time being – although star Annalise Basso has claimed that she hopes one day the series will explore life outside Snowpiercer, telling RadioTimes.com: “I hope one day we’ll be able to take viewers off of the train.
“And I don’t know if that will happen and what the budget for that would be like, but maybe we could go to Iceland or Greenland or somewhere like that to film the exterior shots, who knows!”
She added that there were many stories yet to be told when it comes to the train’s passengers, saying, “the great thing about Snowpiercer is there are so many stories to tell about the people on the train and about survival”.
