Although it is not his project that is getting all the attention, By Zack Snyder The Army of the Dead is still coming to Netflix this year. In fact, thanks to Snyder’s Twitter account, we now know exactly when it’s coming: May 21, when fans can start petitioning Netflix to dump millions and millions of dollars into a longer / better version of Army of the Dead. In addition to announcing the release date, Snyder’s tweet included a new poster for the film that shows a bunch of zombie hands being crushed by a large safe door (ouch!) While dollar bills and playing cards fly through the air . Furthermore, as pointed out by one of the comments on Twitter, says his name on this poster four times. Counting the movie title and Netflix as names, that’s 50 percent of the names!
Army of the Dead it’s about a group of soldiers trying to rob a casino during a zombie outbreak (terrible time for that), and it stars Dave Bautista, Tig Notaro, Ella Purnell and a bunch of other people who are likely to be chewed up by zombies. Furthermore, in an intriguing provocation, Varietyarticle of says Nora Arnezeder is playing “Lily (The Coyote)”, although none of the other actors have animal names listed. Is she playing a coyote named Lily? Is she some kind of badass who goes by the name of The Coyote? Anyway, we’re in it. Snyder must put someone on Justice League called The Coyote!
In addition to Army of the Dead, Netflix has a previous movie and an animated TV series in progress.
