| Octavia Spencer with her Golden Globe |
- SNOW PIERCER GETS HELP
Award-winning
The Help co-star Octavia Spencer
has joined the cast of director Bong Joon-ho's sci-fi thriller Snow Piercer and will
appear alongside Chris Evans, John Hurt and Tilda Swinton, as well as Korean
actor Song Kang-ho (The Host).
Heat Vision says the film "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 Snow Piercer, 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."
Spencer will
play a passenger on the train who joins the revolt to save her son. Joon-ho
co-wrote the script for the film, produced by Park Chan-wook and Dooho Choi.
Kelly Masterson
wrote the most recent draft for the project, based on the French graphic novel
"Le Transperceneige."
