    The first novel in the Metro series, it serves as an introduction to the post-apocalyptic setting where a nuclear war has forced people to live underground in the tunnels of the Moscow Metro to fight for survival. Valery Fedorovich, a producer working on the film, had this to say about it all, “This Russian author's book is known all over the world and it is enshrined in the cultural code of sci-fi fans and gamers alike. whole world. For us and Gazprom Media Holding, this is a dream project, the most ambitious and biggest film we have ever launched. We intend to invest an unprecedented sum…in the production and promotion of this film in Russia and abroad. ”

    Filming is set to begin next year, and its release is scheduled for January 1, 2022 in Russia. Fingers crossed, the film will be released soon after in the rest of the world.
