This week, South Korean filmmaker Bong Joon-ho’s latest film, Snowpiercer, comes roaring into theaters courtesy of The Weinstein Company. During a recent press day, we spoke with Harris about his approach to the role of Wilford- a character who doesn’t necessarily get a lot of screen time, but has a huge hand in many of the film’s major turning points. Also, because this writer is a huge Creepshow fan and anyone who has seen the film knows just how amazing and memorable Harris’ performance was in the Father’s Day segment, we got Harris to quickly chat about the smooth dance moves he busted out while shooting the 1982 horror classic.

Set in the post-apocalyptic future where the Earth has entered into a new Ice Age and the only survivors left reside on a perpetual-motion train, also named Snowpiercer, the very fate of humanity hangs in the balance once a revolution breaks out. At the forefront of that revolution is Curtis (Chris Evans), who has made it his personal mission to take control of the Snowpiercer away from its creator Wilford (Ed Harris), the megalomaniacal genius engineer who crafted the vessel and keeps the train’s poorer residents confined to the slums contained within the final car.
