New Development for The Last Train to New York: The Zombie Universe Expands

The Last Train to New York, the American adaptation of the 2016 South Korean film Train to Busan, is back in the spotlight after a long period of silence. The original film, known for its high-octane pace and emotional depth, left a global mark on the zombie genre. This American version will not be a direct remake but a new story set in the same universe. Directed by Timo Tjahjanto and described by producer James Wan as a continued “passion project,” the film is generating buzz.

Wan confirmed that the movie takes place in the same outbreak universe as Train to Busan, focusing on the crisis in America following the events in South Korea. While a release date remains unconfirmed, the project aims to add a new layer to this expanding zombie universe. However, it is still in development, with its timeline for completion uncertain.
