The Hollywood remake of Korean zombie thriller Train To Busan is moving frontwards with the latest news reported by Deadline that Indonesian director Timo Tjahjanto is in talks to helm the film.

News that the moving-picture show – nearly a virus that's spreading through passengers on a train turning them into zombies – will be remade has been circling for a while now but this is the get-go fourth dimension a director has been attached to the project.

Tjahjanto is known for his work in the horror and action genres such as May The Devil Take You and Netflix'southward The Night Comes For Us. He also directed Headshot and Killers, together with his long-term creative partner Kimo Stamboel.

Tjahjanto tweeted on February 19: "Nothing is ever gonna top Railroad train to Busan, a beloved horror in which I bawled my eyes out (never happened since Amenabar'south The Others). Having said that James, Gary & I made an absolute adjuration: Don't boldness & disappoint the fans".
