Snowpiercer season 3: release date, cast, plot and news for post-apocalyptic Netflix series
Snowpiercer season 3 plot
No official plot information for the third series has been released thus far – but executive producer Becky Clements has provided a few details about what we can expect in the next series now that the two trains are apart.
Asked if the series will resemble a chase between the two trains, Clements answered, “There will be some chasing, but it will not be the full season. We definitely have lots of narratives happening. There’s survival, there’s [what happened to] Melanie, there’s research on the train, and there’s the ultimate goal….”
In a separate interview with Deadline, Clements said the next series will find all the characters “trying to find their place in their new world” while she also confirmed there would be a time jump to show “what the new world order looks like”.
She added: “It’s a lot of fun in season three, how we have new alliances and new foes. It’s been fun to watch the scene work, putting new people together.”
And she confirmed that we will also learn more about Josie (Katie McGuinness) and her powers, something that was touched upon in season two.
“That’s kind of our fun, interesting, sci-fi genre bit of human augmentation,” she said. “How far can we and should we go in the world of CRISPR. You know, when we start messing with the maker, what happens? So, yes. There’s some interesting stuff coming there, too.”
Sean Bean also discussed the new alliances with the NY Times, and how having to work together with Layton when the trains are reconnected will affect Wilford’s reign.
“Maybe we’ll get to see him in a more reasonable light. There are moments where he has to bargain with people, comply with some of their demands and try to be diplomatic,” Bean said.
“This might give the audience the impression that Wilford’s folding, but there’s always an ulterior motive — it’s never simple. That’s how cunning he is, how good he is at scheming.”
After it was revealed that the world was getting warmer in season two, we fully expect the very timely climate change message to be expanded upon in season three – especially as Melanie seemingly died attempting to collect data on the changing temperatures. With a time jump confirmed, could it soon be warm enough for humanity to escape Wilford?
