After years of everyone being “Marcia, Marcia, Marcia” about their Justice League cut, I almost forgot about Zack Snyder’s back to the zombie genre. But since everything is coming Snyder this month, we have a poster and an upcoming teaser.
Army of the Dead it was announced in 2008 like a zombie quarantine movie. “Big scale quarantines, lol ”, we said 13 years ago. “Simply unimaginable!” It was in development hell for years, so finally it sat down “BRRAAAAIINNSS” when it was acquired by Netflix.
Army of the Dead stars Dave Bautista as the leader of a group of mercenaries planning a robbery at a Las Vegas casino during a zombie outbreak. The film also stars Matthias Schweighöfer, Ella Purnell, Ana De La Reguera, Theo Rossi, Huma Qureshi, Omari Hardwick and Hiroyuki Sanada. It originally featured Chris D’Elia, but after he was accused of sexual misconduct, it was replaced by Tig Notaro frankly, the biggest update of recent memory.
G / O Media can receive a commission
Army of the Dead releases for Netflix on May 21 and will set the stage for an anime series and movie prequel.
