Snowpiercer, the 2013 Korean film based on the French graphic novel series, is being adapted as a TV series by Terminator, The Sarah Connor Chronicles showrunner Josh Friedman.

According to THR, Tomorrow Studios has optioned the movie, which starred Chris Evans, John Hurt, Jamie Bell, Tilda Swinton, Octavia Spencer and Ed Harris in a post-apocalyptic saga about a group of survivors on a massive train that continuously circles the globe (see “'Snowpiercer' GN Releases for Movie”). The film was directed by Bong Joon-ho, and made $86.8 million worldwide. 

In addition to his TV credits, Friedman wrote War of the Worlds (2005) and the upcoming Avatar 2 and 3 (see “'Avatar' Sequels to Start Shooting Fall 2014”). 

Bong and Snowpiercer co-producer Dooho Choi are attached to executive produce.  Tomorrow’s Marty Adelstein and Becky Clements will also have producer credits.

There is plenty of source material left to mine; Titan Comics will be releasing the English edition of the third graphic novel  in the series in February (see “'Snowpiercer Vol. 3: Terminus'”).
