Peninsula, the undead follow-up to Practice to Busan, is about to depart the station.
With a U.S. theatrical launch already on the playing cards, Yeon Sang-ho’s horror sequel will deep dive right into a world torn aside by a zombie outbreak. To date, so acquainted. However the 2016 authentic was a thrillingly distinctive, and remarkably well-crafted, zombie flick, so now we have excessive hopes that Peninsula will ship extra of the identical… in a great way.
Set to select issues up 4 years after Practice to Busan, Peninsula isn’t a sequel within the strictest sense – at the very least not in response to director Yeon Sang-ho – given the completely different solid of characters. That paves the way in which for a completely contemporary story, however based mostly on these pictures from Display screen Day by day, it’ll retain the identical fashion and ferocious tempo as its predecessor.
It takes place 4 years after Practice To Busan, in the identical universe, but it surely doesn’t proceed the story and has completely different characters. Authorities authority has been decimated after the zombie outbreak in Korea, and there may be nothing left besides the geographical traits of the situation – which is why the movie is named Peninsula.

Starring Gang Dong-won (1987: When The Day Comes) together with Lee Jung-hyun (The Battleship Island), Practice to Busan: Peninsula will seemingly happen 4 years after the zombie outbreak. Not solely that, however with a price range within the area of $8M – twice that of its predecessor – Penisula shall be a lot bigger in scope, as Jung-seok, a “former soldier who has managed to flee abroad, is given a mission to return and unexpectedly meets up with survivors.”
Peninsula is scheduled to launch in South Korea this summer season, with a western launch presumably on the playing cards for late 2020. One would hope that the Oscar triumph of Parasite will stir extra curiosity in Korean cinema, as Practice to Busan was arguably one of the entertaining horror flicks of 2016.
