Even before Parasite, director Bong Joon Ho was already tackling the conflicts between social classes. This was probably most evident in his 2013 sci-fi flick Snowpiercer.
Now, Netflix will be releasing a TV adaptation of the film, set for release on May 25. Check out its full trailer below:
Here is the show’s official synopsis from Netflix:
Set seven years after the world has become a frozen wasteland, Snowpiercer centers on the remnants of humanity, who inhabit a gigantic, perpetually-moving train that circles the globe. Class warfare, social injustice and the politics of survival are questioned in this riveting television adaptation. The series is based on the acclaimed movie of the same name.
James Hawes directs the series, and it stars Jennifer Connelly, Mickey Sumner, and Daveed Diggs.
