Sony makes it official: ‘Zombieland 3D’ is a go
‘Zombieland 2′ movies forward
In the least shocking news of the day, Sony Pictures will be moving forward with a sequel to Zombieland with one major difference between that and the original: the new one will be <gulp> 3D.
“Everyone had fun watching Zombieland; making it a more visceral experience can only make it better,” said the film’s producer Gavin Polone. “I don’t think you want to see Ordinary People in 3-D. But Zombieland is clearly one movie that will benefit from [the technology].”
The studio is currently in talks with Woody Harrelson and Jesse Eisenberg to reprise their roles, while Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick are working on the sequel’s screenplay.
Wernick spoke to MTV in October about the possibility of a follow-up to Zombieland.
“It has lived in our heads for four-and-a-half years,” Wernick said about a Zombieland 2. “We developed it and wrote it as a spec TV pilot in the summer of 2005. We’ve got a long brainstorming document that still to this day gets updated on a near-weekly basis with ideas. We’ve got tons of new ideas swimming in our head.”
“We would love to do several sequels. We would love to also see it on television. It would make a wonderful TV series.”
I would like to be considered for a role in this movie. Alive or undead. Perhaps someone can put me in touch with the creators.
