After the fourth season, TNT will no longer air Snowpiercer. Inspired by the 1982 graphic novel Le Transperceneige by Jean-Marc Rochette and written by Jacques Lob, Benjamin Legrand, and Bong Joon-ho, this post-apocalyptic dystopian thriller TV series follows in the same vein.
With its May 2020 premiere, Snowpiercer whisks viewers away to 2026, when the titular luxury train carries the last survivors of mankind as they relentlessly traverse the icy wasteland of a globe. Here’s everything you need to know about Snowpiercer season 5!
Will Snowpiercer Season 5 be renewed or canceled?
Tragically, fans of the dystopian science fiction series Snowpiercer have learned that the show’s fourth and final season, which has already wrapped production, will not air on TNT as scheduled. The series Snowpiercer won’t be renewed for season 5, and the fourth season will be the last one.
“We can confirm that TNT will not air season four of Snowpiercer,” a spokesman from the network told EW on Friday. It was a tough call, but we will always have the utmost respect for the brilliant minds behind Snowpiercer and the incredible post-apocalyptic universe it created. Since last year, we’ve been coordinating with the producers to find a new venue for the series so that viewers may keep enjoying the riveting plot and breathtaking visuals. In the future, we hope to collaborate with them on further initiatives.
But it might not be catastrophic. Tomorrow Studios, the show’s producer, has stated its desire to find a new partner “shortly” so that viewers can watch the series’ last episodes. According to Deadline Hollywood, the long-term plan is to create a series that will include a prequel and a sequel.
Snowpiercer Season 5 Cast
If the fifth season happens, we might expect these cast members:
- Jennifer Connelly as Melanie Cavill
- Alison Wright as Ruth Wardell
- Mickey Sumner as Bess Till
- Daveed Diggs as Andre Layton
- Lena Hall as Miss Audrey
- Katie McGuinness as Josie Wellstead
- Susan Park as Jinju Seong
- Iddo Goldberg as Bennett Knox
- Mike O’Malley as Sam Roche
- Sam Otto as John Osweiller (Oz)
- Sheila Vand as Zarah Ferami

Snowpiercer Season Five Plot: What to Expect?
The train underwent major alterations towards the conclusion of the previous season. On the train, passengers were divided into two groups: one that remained with Melanie, who oversaw hospitality, and another that accompanied Layton to New Eden, an off-train settlement where residents may settle.
The issues these two factions face will hopefully be explored further in the upcoming season. As individuals are torn between the train and New Eden, the show will explore the challenges of establishing a new civilization in a post-apocalyptic world. Wealth, global warming, and social injustice have been the primary themes of the series thus far. These matters will be examined more thoroughly.
Some hints on the upcoming season’s plot are still required. How will things turn out for the residents of New Eden? Will they encounter challenges they weren’t prepared for? How will those who have boarded the train yet to cope with the changes and the absence of many others? These are questions that will be addressed in the final season.
Snowpiercer Season 5 Release Date
Since the show was well-liked and had positive reviews, its cancellation came as a shock to many. This thrilling drama is coming to a close now that production on the fourth season has begun. Much as after the conclusion of “Mindhunter” on Netflix, the performers’ contracts were not renewed for more episodes. Thus, there’s no release date for Snowpiercer season 5; stay connected with us for more updates!
