Whether it’s apocalyptic or post-apocalyptic, cinema’s obsession with the destruction of the world has hit a fever pitch this year. Ahead of this week’s release of the comedy This is the End, we’ve got new character posters for two upcoming world-ending entries, Edgar Wright‘s The World’s End and Bong Joon-ho‘s Snowpiercer.
First up is Wright’s last entry into his Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy, where we have character one-sheets for Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Martin Freeman, Paddy Considine, Eddie Marsan, and Rosamund Pike. Each of the posters come equipped with the name of a bar from the film, in which our leads venture to. On the next page one can see new character posters for the upcoming Snowpiercer, featuring Chris Evans, Jamie Bell, Song Kang-ho, Tilda Swinton, Ed Harris, John Hurt, Ewen Bremner, Octavia Spencer and Ko Ah-sung.
