[MHN Jung Halim reporter] 'Snowpiercer', a new show based on the same source as Bong Joon Ho's movie of the same name, will be released on Netflix on the coming 25th.

Netflix released a description of the show on May 11th, explaining that it is about a train, the last hope of humanity, and the societal inequalities, class struggles, and the attempts to survive that occur on board, all throughout its 10 episodes.

The show centers on a detective from the tail section brought to the front to solve a grizzly murder, and his discovery of a secret that holds the survival of everyone on the balance.

'Alita: Battle Angel' star Jennifer Connelly appears as the trains de facto supervisor 'Melanie', while 'Velvet Buzzsaw' star Daveed Diggs will be acting as the 'train detective' Layton, a man from the train section brought to solve the murder in the train.

Netflix stated that "While the setting and the class divisions are similar to that of the movie, important characters and the drama between them are a bit different."

Director Bong and Park Chan Wook, the representative of 'Moho Film', which produced Bong's Snowpiercer, participated in the production of the series.
