The pilot of the adaptation of Snowpiercer gains interest following the article published by an American media that announces the arrival of Jennifer Connelly in the cast. She should embody the headliner of this enticing project that will be broadcast on TNT.
A big name for the Snowpiercer series
The announcement comes to us from Deadline. The actress we have seen in many feature films (such as Requiem for a dream, an exceptional man, Noé …) would play the role of Melanie Cavill, the voice of the train. She would be the one in charge of daily announcements. Living in the first class, she would be of interest to her fellow citizens of the lower classes.
The actress is not the most present on the small screen. She will face a star from a Broadway hit, Daveed Diggs. Jennifer Connelly has a habit of choosing her projects well as we can see in her filmography. In any case, it corresponds perfectly to the type of artists we want to see in this adaptation.
The director of Doctor Strange at the helm
The plot of Snowpiercer is known thanks to the film by South Korean director Bong Joon-ho. The one who was at the helm of the film telling the esoteric exploits of the wizard of Marvel, Scott Derrickson, will have the heavy responsibility not to distort this important work of the comic.
The pilot will last an hour and we can tell you that we can't wait to discover the first images.
