Tonight, don’t miss the highly praised science fiction thriller, Snowpiercer, featuring Chris Evans and Tilda Swinton, as it airs on television!
The movie, inspired by Jacques Lob’s 1982 comic book “Le Transperceneige,” takes place in a world ravaged by a catastrophic climate event. The story unfolds aboard a train that now serves as the last refuge for humanity.
On its journey around the planet, the train separates its compartments according to affluence and societal status, which eventually leaves Curtis Everett Evans feeling increasingly disenchanted with the world’s state. With a spirit of revolt stirring within him, he ascends the train to mingle among the elite.

You can watch the film “Snowpiercer,” which was both directed and co-written by South Korean director Bong Joon Ho, tonight at 9pm on ITV4. If you prefer to watch it earlier, you can find it streaming on ITVX right now.
Featuring a strong ensemble of actors like Jamie Bell and Octavia Spencer, the science fiction thriller earned widespread praise when it hit theaters in 2014. As of now, its Rotten Tomatoes rating stands high at 94%, based on 266 reviews.
In a captivating review, Entertainment Weekly remarks that “Snowpiercer” draws you so profoundly into its extraordinary, innovative universe that it gives the uncommon feeling of having encountered something completely novel… and leaves you eager to experience it once more.
In simpler terms, “The Atlantic” described it as a unique summer experience that’s hard to come by now; an action movie with loud, clanging sounds, which is very engaging and seems to be shouting in your ears. Meanwhile, “Grantland” called it “memorably strange”.
According to both The Hollywood Reporter and Variety, Snowpiercer stands out as a thoughtfully crafted and visually appealing post-apocalyptic action thriller compared to many others in its genre.
USA Today equally praised Snowpiercer, describing it as a unique blend that seamlessly merges the visual allure of a future-set action flick with the depth and thoughtfulness typical of art films.
Because of the film’s success, a television show, where Bong resumed his producer role, debuted in 2020. The ensemble consisted of Sean Bean and Jennifer Connelly among others. Over four seasons and 40 episodes, it aired until 2024, wrapping up its run then.
Snowpiercer airs at 9 pm on ITV4. You can catch both the movie and the TV show streaming on ITVX as well.
The latest print issue from Digital Spy, titled “Oasis – Live in ’25”, is available for purchase! You can buy it from local newsagents or online, and right now it’s only £8.99.
