‘Snowpiercer’ Season 4 Officially Wraps Up Filming, Likely to Premiere this Winter

The fourth and final season of the post-apocalyptic sci-fi thriller series, “Snowpiercer” has officially wrapped up filming this Friday in Vancouver, BC, Canada. The final season began production on March 28 this year and was halted on July 29 due to extreme heat conditions on the set.

“Snowpiercer” Season 4 is currently scheduled to complete the post-production work in December 2022, which means it will be ready by the end of this year. Although TNT is yet to confirm any date or month for the premiere, we can expect “Snowpiercer” Season 4 to premiere in December 2022 or January 2023 on TNT in the US and Netflix in select countries.

In June 2022, TNT confirmed that Snowpiercer will end its journey with the fourth season. It will also become the final scripted original series to air on TNT as Warner Bros. Discovery has halted original scripted series development at TNT. Animal Kingdom Season 6, which is also the final season of the series is currently airing on TNT.

The 10-episode fourth and final season will pick up in the aftermath of a rocket exploding on the Horizon as Bennett and Melanie are together now. Since season 4 is already confirmed to be the end of the journey, the series will reach a suitable conclusion and is unlikely to leave any unfinished story or cliffhanger.

In the Season 3 finale, Melanie and Layton strike an agreement in which they exile Wilford together on the track scaler and then give the people the option of continuing life on Snowpiercer with Melanie or exploring New Eden with Layton. The separation of the trains forces loved ones to say their goodbyes as they decide where to go; after Oz abandons her, LJ chokes to death on her father's glass eye, while Till decides to stay with Audrey on Snowpiercer at the last minute and Bennett stays after Melanie commits herself fully to their relationship. Big Alice is derailed by the tough track to the Horn of Africa, but everyone escapes and finds the outdoors to be warm and hospitable.

Paul Zbyszewski is the showrunner of Snowpiercer Season 4 along with executive producing the series with Christoph Schrewe, Marty Adelstein, and Becky Clements of Tomorrow Studios, Matthew O’Connor, Ben Rosenblatt, and Scott Derrickson, and the original film’s producers, Bong, Park Chan-wook, Miky Lee, Jinnie Choi, Lee Tae-hun and Dooho Choi. Tomorrow Studios along with CJ Entertainment are the producers of the series with ITV handling the international distribution.

"Snowpiercer" is set more than seven years after the world has become a frozen wasteland, and it follows the last of humanity who live aboard a continually moving train with 1001 cars that circles the globe.
