'Snowpiercer' Season 2 Episode 1 'The Time of Two Engines': When will it air and how to watch it on Netflix
Are you ready for 'Snowpiercer' Season 2 premiere on January 25 at 9 pm? Things are going to get heated with the introduction of Sean Bean as Mr Wilford and Rowan Blanchard as Alexandra Cavill, the daughter who Melanie Cavill (Jennifer Connelly) thought she had lost forever. According to the synopsis of 'The Time of Two Engines' that kicks off this season, "Melanie Cavill makes a move that can't be undone" after Mr Wilford arrives. This will set off a season-long conflict which will see an "entirely new power struggle".
In Season 2, there will be a dangerous rift among the survivors as they will be divided between their loyalty to Layton and to Mr. Wilford. Of course, Wilford has not come empty-handed -- he has a new train, new technology and a game plan that keeps everyone guessing.
But as Layton battles Wilford for the "soul of Snowpiercer", Melanie will lead the charge on a shocking new discovery that could change the fate of humanity. Will her discovery make life on the Snowpiercer redundant?

Want a Season 1 refresher?
Slightly confused about where the story left off last season. Read our "Ending Explained" for Season 1. Season 1 is also available on HBO Max since January 1, 2021. Season 3 has already been greenlit so this is not a series that will be abandoned mid-plot. So you can safely put it on your watch list and see the likes of Daveed Diggs, Sean Bean, Melanie Cavill and Rowan Blanchard vie for screen attention in this thrilling dystopic aboard the train that never stops.
Snowpiercer Season 2 episodes airs Mondays at 9 pm ET / 8 pm CT on TNT and Tuesdays on Netflix.
