A lower budget film <strong><em>Train To Busan<\/em><\/strong> saw lots of unexpected success in the United States and helped pave the way for <em>Parasite<\/em> and its road to success. Now, <strong>Well Go USA<\/strong> has announced that the sequel to <em>Train To Busan<\/em> finally has an official release date! Previously set to release on August 7th, <strong><em>Train To Busan Presents: Peninsula<\/em><\/strong> is now set to release in the United States on August 21, 2020.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new date seems to coincide with the time frame in which a vast majority of theaters across the country will be opening their doors to customers. Christopher Nolan\u2019s <strong><em>Tenet<\/em><\/strong> isn\u2019t set to receive a release until September 3, so <em>Peninsula<\/em> serves as both a test to see just how many people are ready to return to theaters before the highly anticipated <em>Tenet<\/em> and a fresh welcome to cinephiles and fans of the first installment of the franchise.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although the original cast from <em>Train To Busan<\/em> won\u2019t be returning, fans of the film will be excited to know that director <strong>Yeon Sang-ho<\/strong> is back in control. The film also stars <strong>Gang Dong-won<\/strong>, <strong>Lee Jung-hyun<\/strong>, and <strong>Lee Re<\/strong> and will be released in theaters August 21.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/comicbook.com\/movies\/news\/train-to-busan-sequel-peninsula-gets-u-s-release-date\/\">Comicbook.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Train to Busan: Peninsula&#8221;
