...Via Screen Daily, Well Go USA has acquired North American rights to Peninsula, the hotly anticipated sequel to director Yeon Sang-ho's Train to Busan! Released in 2016, the film was a complete hit, breaking hearts and shocking audiences all across the globe, since receiving rave reviews and even an animated prequel, Seoul Station. Sang-ho claims that Peninsula is not in fact a sequel, but says it does happen in the same universe.

In Peninsula:

"The film takes place four years after the outbreak of zombies that were chasing protagonists on a train speeding south to Busan. The Korean peninsula is devastated and Jung-seok, a former soldier who has managed to escape overseas, is given a mission to go back and unexpectedly meets up with survivors."

The film is reported to have twice the budget, and will star Gang Dong-won and Lee Jung-hyun.

Peninsula is currently in post-production.
