We were left with our heads spinning and brittle hearts broken after the harrowing Season 2 two-part finale of Snowpiercer on March 29, 2021. It’s been almost a year now and fans have been waiting for some burning questions to be answered in the new season. TNT’s Snowpiercer Season 3 premiered on 24 January 2022.
Les Transperceneige, a French graphic novel produced by Jacques Lob, Jean-Marc Rochette, and Benjamin Legrand, was published in 1982. The plot, which was later carried in three further volumes, revolved around a 1,001-car-long train called Snowpiercer, which traveled throughout the world, carrying what remained of mankind when a cataclysmic event freezes the entire planet. Passengers at the front live in luxury, while at the tail end, it’s the direct opposite. Bong Joon Ho’s English feature film Snowpiercer, based on Les Transperceneige, was released in 2013. The movie plot was adapted yet again in 2020, this time as a television series distributed by TNT as well as Netflix.

What’s the plot of Snowpiercer Season 3?
At the end of season two, Layton and Ruth, who were banished to Big Alice’s compost car, plotted to take back Snowpiercer. With the help of Javier and Alexandra, Layton and Ruth made it back to Snowpiercer and rallied with their supporters. Josie destroyed the Aquarium car, separating Snowpiercer’s head from the remaining 1,023 cars.
Is Melanie really dead? That’s the biggest question heartbroken fans have been asking since season 2 ended. It looks like she’s back! Snowpiercer‘s season 2 finale also apparently killed off two other major characters: Javier de la Torre and Bojan “Boki” Boscovic.
