New action / drama / sci-fi Snowpiercer is a new Netflix series set over seven years after the world has become a frozen wasteland. And the remnants of humanity, occupy a gigantic, perpetually-moving train that circles the globe.
Created by Graeme Manson; Jennifer Connelly, Daveed Diggs and Mickey Sumner are among the key cast.
The premise is interesting, and now also a tad closer to reality than it may have been about six months ago. I’ll be watching for all the madness, and for the Diggs / Connelly dynamic.
Having not yet watched the 2013 movie of the same name starring Chris Evans, it’s probably best I do that before seeing this. Especially since it was directed by Bong Joon Ho of Parasite (2019).
Sheila Vand, Lena Hall, Alison Wright, Iddo Goldberg, Aaron Glenane, Karin Konoval, Annalise Basso, Sam Otto and Emma Oliver also star.
Snowpiercer Release Dates: May 17th, 2020 (US); / Netflix…
Happy Film Loving

The trailer is quite full of suspense… I guess we may be seeing more and more antiutopian movies in the future, just these strange times we live in… Thanks to the reference to Parasite, that’s definitely on my list to watch…
It really does look promising. I’m looking forward to Connelly playing what seems like a darker character.
I have such good memories of Parasite. I hope you enjoy it.
Ups, I transferred antiutopian from my language, dystopian seems to be correct in English 🙂
Don’t you worry. it happens to all of us. 🤓
I liked the trailer. I saw the 2013 movie and liked it so I’m hopeful for this one. I haven’t seen Parasite but liked Bong Joon Ho’s the Host. Hubby has gotten me into more foreign movies. It’s quirky but fun. I’m hoping this one will not disappoint.
I like that Jennifer Connelly is involved. She’s pretty much always good.
Thanks for letting me know about the Host. I can always make time for quirky and fun. As a new Bong Joon Ho fan, have my fingers crossed for the Parasite series he’ll be involved with. No idea when it will be released though.
I like just about any thing Jennifer Connelly has done so yes, this should be good. I’m going to have to watch Parasite soon before the series comes out.
Definitely watch parasite. It was so deserving of all its four Oscar wins.
