To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Train to Busan (arguably one of the best zombie movies ever made), Well Go USA Entertainment has a treat. It is bringing Yeon Sang-ho’s acclaimed zombie thriller back to theaters across the U.S. and Canada on August 14, 2026, presented in 4K for the first time on the big screen.
Well Go has also acquired North American rights to the director’s newest zombie feature, Colony. It will make its world premiere at Cannes in May, ahead of Well Go’s theatrical release on August 28, 2026.
Originally released in 2016, Train to Busan follows a group of passengers trapped on a train. They must fight for survival during a deadly zombie virus outbreak. The film was a global box office hit. The film stars Gong Yoo (“Squid Game”), Ma Dong-seok (Don Lee) (Eternals), Choi Woo-sik (Parasite), and Kim Su-an (The Battleship Island).
About Colony
Yeon Sang-ho’s newest feature, Colony, follows Professor Se-jeong. She is thrust into a terrifying hellscape when a mutating virus is unleashed during a biotech conference. The authorities seal the facility to contain the outbreak. Unable to escape, Se-jeong and a group of survivors must fight to stay alive as the infected undergo horrific transformations and threaten to spread the virus. The film marks Gianna Jun’s (“My Sassy Girl”) first feature film since 2015’s Assassination. She stars alongside Koo Kyo-hwan (Peninsula, Escape from Mogadishu).
“No one delivers zombie films quite like Yeon Sang-ho. TRAIN TO BUSAN redefined the genre for audiences around the world, and we’re excited to bring it back to theaters in 4K for its 10th anniversary,” said Doris Pfardrescher, President and CEO of Well Go USA. “With COLONY, he takes that intensity and scale even further, delivering a bold and terrifying new vision for fans.”
