Agents of SHIELD star Clark Gregg has boarded the upcoming fourth season of TNT's Snowpiercer television series. Along with Gregg, Paul Zybyszewski will take over as the showrunner on the popular dystopian future drama show. They both worked together previously on the ABC Studios and Marvel television series. Snowpiercer was renewed for a fourth season just ahead of the third season's premiere.
The show which follows a train of passengers attempting to find a safe zone during a frozen apocalypse was a popular science fiction film prior to being turned into a television show. It's seen quite a bit of success for TNT and is one of the highest rated shows on the cable outlet. It's also available to watch on the Amazon Prime streaming service.
Jennifer Connelly and Daveed Diggs lead the series which will see the addition of Gregg. Gregg was quite obviously featured in the Marvel films as Agent Coulson and went on to star in the SHIELD offshoot. There's no mention of how large his role will be in Snowpiercer at this time.
Both the film and series are based on the Snowpiercer graphic novel series.
