Bong Joon Ho’s SNOWPIERCER should have hit sometime this year. But like so many trains, it’s going to arrive late. The film, which is Bong’s English language debut, arrived on time in Bong’s native South Korea back in August. Unfortunately, the Weinstein’s got their hands on it and the film is facing a number of cuts. The film is jam packed with massive names, all queuing up to work with Bong, whose previous projects MEMORIES OF MURDER, THE HOST, and MOTHER, are all modern classics. The film, based on a French graphic novel, sees a train with the last of humanity travel through a new ice-age.
SNOWPIERCER still has no US or UK release date confirmed. It stars Chris Evans, Song Kang Ho, Ed Harris, Tilda Swinton, Allison Pill, Octavia Spender, Jamie Bell, Ewen Bremner, and John Hurt.
