Zack Snyder is set to begin shooting on
Watchmen this summer but looking further ahead, he doesn't have anything else on his schedule. Until now perhaps...
Variety are reporting that the director's production company Cruel and Unusual along with Warner Brothers are looking to bring the zombie thriller
Army of the Dead to the big screen. The movie which will be set in a quarantined Las Vegas, follows a father who tries to save his daughter from imminent death in a world full of zombies. Snyder spoke to the trade...
"I feel like there hasn't been a zombie movie on the scale that we want to do it," According to the trade, he mentioned he wants the film to have to "
have a sweeping, epic quality, along the lines of the highly stylized 300". Of course, it was a zombie movie that made Snyder a name in Hollywood when he remade the classic
Dawn of the Dead three years ago, to a surprising success. A zombie movie done in the style of
300? Wow, can you imagine that? No word as to whether Snyder will be directing the movie as well as producing it. Personally, I thought the guy would have moved on from zombies now but if he does decide to helm it, then I'm all for it. source -
