The South Korean zombie flick that dominated the box office in 2016, Train To Busan, was so well received that it earned itself a sequel Peninsula which was released last year and even an animated prequel, Seoul Station released in 2016 after the film's success.

However, a remake of the film seemed to be something no one had requested. It was announced back in February that a remake of Yeon Sang-ho's masterpiece was confirmed, specifically for the English audience.
