Showbox has unveiled the first trailer for “Colony,” the new Korean action thriller from “Train to Busan” director Yeon Sang-ho.

The film, which stars Gianna Jun as a scientist caught in a rapidly escalating viral outbreak, has been selected for the Midnight Screening section at the Cannes Film Festival.

The story centers on Se-jeong, a biotechnology professor who is attending an industry conference when a fast-mutating virus is released, sending the event into chaos. With those exposed beginning to change, authorities lock down the entire facility, leaving survivors trapped inside with a threat that keeps growing. The film’s logline reads: “As the virus spreads, the order begins to mutate.”
