TNT’s “Snowpiercer” TV series, starring Jennifer Connelly and Daveed Diggs, will now launch on Sunday, May 17th – two weeks earlier than originally planned. A new trailer for it has also been released.
Based on both the 2014 Bong Joon-ho film and its original comic source material “Le Transperceneige,” the story is set in an Ice Age with the last of humanity now living onboard a train powered by a perpetual-motion engine.
Diggs plays Andrew Layton, an ex-detective and resident in the lowest class all the way at the back of the train. He is soon recruited by the train’s authorities to track down a killer.
Mickey Sumner, Susan Park, Benjamin Haigh, Sasha Frolova, Katie McGuinness, Sam Otto, Alison Wright, Annalise Basso, Sheila Vand, Roberto Urbina, Lena Hall and Rowan Blanchard co-star.
