Based on the comic, Snowpiercer was released in 2013 and followed a dystopian sci-fi story, it takes place entirely on a train. The occupants are the only survivors of an apocalypse, the train is a perpetual motion machine continuously circling the baron Earth.

Violent action and grim comedy follows our protagonist as he journeys through each interconnected narrow train car in a gorgeous (though not subtle) metaphor for classism. Why reboot such a stunning, well-received movie?

Why It Might Work:

The reboot will be a TV series. Taking advantage of this format, it will focus both closely on the passengers of the train connected by an overarching mystery -and have a wider look at the world and the politics that led up to the climate disaster that caused the apocalypse. Produced by TBS, there is enough confidence in the series that a second season has already been confirmed.

West loves pop culture, movies, comics and TV-shows just as much as you do. Probably. Since you're reading this. Also, she has a cat. He's pretty awesome.
