‘Zombieland 2’ Promises to Have Blood Flying in Your Face
It has already been revealed that Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick are hard at working penning a sequel to their smash hit zombedy Zombieland that will bring Ruben Fleischer back to the director’s chair for zombies in 3-D. A new video interview with the writing duo was posted online today where they reveal some big plans for the 3-D elements in Zombieland 2. Read on for the skinny.
With Woody Harrelson and Jesse Eisenberg confirmed to be returning, Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick explain that they want to create a larger family.
“We want to stick with our dysfunctional family,” Wernick told MTV in the below interview. “But also introduce new characters.”
“We entirely want to write with 3-D in mind,” Wernick added. “We have the vision, and want to have fun with the technology…”
“We want you to be looking down at your popcorn to make sure there isn’t blood on it,” Reese said laughingly. “There will be a lot of fluids flying!”
Paramount is heading to Sleepy Hollow with a brand new feature film take on the classic Headless Horseman tale, with Lindsey Anderson Beer (Pet Sematary: Bloodlines) announced to direct the movie back in 2022. But is that project still happening, now two years later?
The Hollywood Reporter lets us know this afternoon that Paramount Pictures has renewed its first-look deal with Lindsey Anderson Beer, and one of the projects on the upcoming slate is the aforementioned Sleepy Hollow movie that was originally announced two years ago.
THR details, “Additional projects on the development slate include… Sleepy Hollow with Anderson Beer attached to write, direct, and produce alongside Todd Garner of Broken Road.”
You can learn more about the slate over on The Hollywood Reporter. It also includes a supernatural thriller titled Here Comes the Dark from the writers of Don’t Worry Darling.
The origin of all things Sleepy Hollow is of course Washington Irving’s story “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow,” which was first published in 1819. Tim Burton adapted the tale for the big screen in 1999, that film starring Johnny Depp as main character Ichabod Crane.
More recently, the FOX series “Sleepy Hollow” was also based on Washington Irving’s tale of Crane and the Headless Horseman. The series lasted four seasons, cancelled in 2017.
