Warning: Contains spoilers for the TV series Snowpiercer. All four seasons of an acclaimed thriller series starring Sean Bean and Jennifer Connelly are finally available to stream for free in the UK. Snowpiercer, which aired between 2020 and 2024, is based on the Bong Joon-Ho film of the same name, which was first released in 2013.
As well as starring Jennifer and Sean in key roles, the show’s cast also includes Hamilton star Daveed Diggs and English actress Mickey Sumner. Much like the film, Snowpiercer follows the story of a train that traverses the globe, carrying the only humans left on Earth seven years after a sudden apocalyptic ice age event.
The award-winning series was helmed primarily by Graeme Manson after being initially created by Graeme and fellow TV writer Josh Friedman. Initially given a mixed reaction by critics for its first few episodes, later seasons saw critics warm up to it, and its fanbase continued to grow.
However, after the first three seasons ended up on Netflix, the show’s fourth and final season wasn’t picked up by a major TV distributor or streamer in the UK. This was caused by the merger between Warner Bros. and Discovery in 2022, with the fourth and final season eventually being sold to American network AMC.
Thankfully, for fans of the series in Britain who’ve had to wait for months, that’s now changed, with all four seasons of Snowpiercer finally available to stream on ITVX. This is likely down to Tomorrow Studios – who produce the series – being a subsidiary of ITV, allowing Snowpiercer to be streamed in the UK at last.
