TNT sets 'Snowpiercer' premiere date

TNT's post-apocalyptic sci-fi series “Snowpiercer” will premiere Sunday, May 31 (9 p.m. ET). Based on the critically acclaimed graphic novel series and the film from Golden Globe Award winner Bong Joon Ho (“Parasite”), the new series stars Oscar winner Jennifer Connelly (“A Beautiful Mind”) and Tony Award winner Daveed Diggs.
