Here's a few great pieces of concept art for Bong Joon-ho‘s Hollywood movie debut Snowpiercer. The post apocalyptic sci-fi film is based on the French graphic novel Le Transperceneige. The movie has a great cast of actors that includes Chris Evans, Tilda Swinton, Jamie Bell, Alison Pill, John Hurt, Ed Harris, Octavia Spencer, and Song Kang-ho. Here's the synopsis...
Snowpiercer is set in a future where, after a failed experiment to stop global warming, an Ice Age kills off all life on the planet except for the inhabitants of the Snowpiercer, a train that travels around the globe and is powered by a sacred perpetual-motion engine. A class system evolves on the train but a revolution brews.
The concept art features the passenger-filled inside quarters from inside the train, a school, as well as the outside of the train and the frozen terrain wasteland.
It sounds and looks like it's going to be a great movie, and remember John-ho is the same director that brought us films such as The Host and Mother. So that should give you some more on an idea of what's in store for us.
The film will most likely end up being released sometime this summer. I'm excited to see how this turns out! We also have a teaser poster and a sample of the musical score for you to listen to.
