The first trailer for the post-apocalyptic series Snowpiercer has been revealed at Comic-Con, teasing a very cold turn from Jennifer Connelly. Based on the same comic-book series as Bong Joon-Ho's 2013 film, the new series will expand on the story across multiple episodes. Watch the trailer below.

As with the movie, the series centres on the remnant of humanity, who are all stationed on a perpetually moving train that circles the globe. Why does the train have to constantly be moving? Because the Earth has become a frozen wasteland due to global warming and a climate engineering experiment that went wrong.

Appearing alongside Connelly at San Diego Comic-Con were Daveed Diggs, Alison Wright, Mickey Sumner, Lena Hall, Steven Ogg and showrunner Graeme Manson. 

No exact release date was announced, but we can expect the series to debut Spring 2020. The series is being released by TBS in the US.
