A German poster has been released for Summit’s Warm Bodies, this time dropping all of the clever puns.

In theaters February 1 from All the Boys Love Mandy Lane‘s Jonathan Levine, “Warm Bodies is a poignant tale about the power of human connection. After a zombie epidemic, R (a highly unusual zombie) encounters Julie (a human survivor), and rescues her from a zombie attack. Julie sees that R is different from the other zombies, and as the two form a special relationship in their struggle for survival, R becomes increasingly more human – setting off an exciting, romantic, and often comical chain of events that begins to transform the other zombies and maybe even the whole lifeless world.”

Nicholas Hoult, Teresa Palmer, Rob Corddry, John Malkovich and Analeigh Tipton all star. READ MORE

“Cold body. Warm heart.”

In theaters February 1 from Summit Entertainment is Warm Bodies, a new kind of zombie film from All the Boys Love Mandy Lane director Jonathan Levine.

The first trailer was definitely eyebrow raising, in a good way, as it was quirky, fun and pretty hilarious. The new trailer takes the same approach but takes viewers inside the zombie’s head. The thought process reminds me of “The Wonder Years” a bit. Added with the trailer from last week are two new stills that show the “evolution” of a zombie!

Warm Bodies Date Shifts From August To February 2013

Summit Entertainment is moving director Jonathan Levine’s (All The Boys Love Mandy Lane, The Wackness, 50/50) hotly anticipated zombie flick Warm Bodies from August 10th to February 1, 2013.

Word is that the move has more to do with Summit’s newly crowded, Lionsgate infused, schedule rather than the quality of the film. This is something I’m willing to believe, as I have a lot of trust in Levine. I also visited the set in October – and while I can’t really talk much about that or reveal any details of any kind – what I saw impressed me. It seemed like he was very much bringing a personal vision to the film. And after subsequently reading the book, I’m convinced it’s a good piece of material for him to adapt.

I understand why Summit is sort of positioning it as being somewhat akin to Twilight – but I really think the film will prove to be much different, and better, than that. The source material certainly is.

So yeah, I’m kinda bummed I have to wait another six months to see it. Then again, it could actually be a great movie for Valentine’s day.

Starring Nicholas Hoult, Teresa Palmer, Rob Corddry, John Malkovich and Analeigh Tipton, “the story centers on an existentially tormented zombie who begins an unlikely friendship with the girlfriend of one of his victims and starts a chain reaction that will transform him and his fellow zombies.” READ MORE

WarmLand110211 AFM 11: First Image From Jonathan Levines Warm Bodies!

I’m really looking forward to Jonathan Levine’s Warm Bodies. I think he’s a great new talent with a deft handle on a lot of tones that most directors his age would turn mawkish.

This new image out of AFM confirms that Summit is intent on making a bid to the Twilight audience with this film. With all of the success the franchise has had, I can’t blame them. But it’s okay to expect more out of this movie. I recently spent some time on the film’s set – and while I can’t say ANYTHING yet – everything indicates that it’s far better and more interesting than anything Twilight.

The film stars Nicholas Hoult, Rob Corddry, Theresa Palmer and John Malkovich. Based on the book by Isaac Marion the story “follows an existentially tormented zombie named “R” who begins an unlikely friendship with the girlfriend of one of his victims. It starts a chain reaction that will transform him, his fellow zombies, and maybe the whole undead world.”

As time goes by it’s becoming evident that Jonathan Levine is one of the brighter emerging talents in Hollywood. I loved The Wackness, have heard great things about 50/50 and am eagerly awaiting a world where All The Boys Love Mandy Lane is widely, and legally, available.

So even though I’m sick of zombies it’s hard not to be excited about his take on the genre, Warm Bodies. Yesterday we heard that John Malkovich had joined the already impressive cast of Nicholas Hoult, Rob Corddry and Theresa Palmer.

And now we’re told that Lizzy Caplan (Mean Girls, Cloverfield, “Party Down” and 127 Hours) is now in “final talks” to join the cast as well. I’ve always liked her work and am stoked to see all of these people under Levine’s wing.

Based on the book by Isaac Marion the story “follows an existentially tormented zombie named “R” who begins an unlikely friendship with the girlfriend of one of his victims. It starts a chain reaction that will transform him, his fellow zombies, and maybe the whole undead world.”

Teresa Palmer, who received a lot of notice for her breakout work in I Am Number Four, is in talks to star opposite Nicholas Hoult (X-Men: First Class) in Summit’s zombie love story Warm Bodies, reports THR.

Jonathan Levine (All the Boys Love Mandy Lane) is directing the project, which, in a tone described as Twilight meets Shaun of the Dead, “follows an existentially tormented zombie named R that begins an unlikely friendship with the human girlfriend (Palmer) of one of his victims. The blossoming relationship starts a chain reaction that will transform him, his fellow zombies and maybe the whole lifeless world.”

Palmer’s character is described as the daughter of one of the humans’ military leaders who is tiring of a life of constantly fighting off zombie attacks.

Seriously, can you believe All the Boys Love Mandy Lane is still not out here in the States? It makes me sick to my stomach, but at least director Jonathan Levine was still able to get a new project off the ground without the help of Mandy.

Nicholas Hoult, one of the stars of X-Men First Class, and who is prepping to shoot Jack the Giant Killer, has been cast in Summit entertainment’s Warm Bodies, writes the Hollywood Reporter.

Levin is directing the story which, in a tone similiar to Twilight meets Shaun of the Dead, follows an existentially-tormented zombie named R that begins an unlikely friendship with the human girlfriend of one of his victims. The blossoming relationship starts a chain reaction that will transform him, his fellow zombies and maybe the whole lifeless world.

The project is based on a book by Isaac Marion which will be published by Atria Books, a division of Simon and Schuster.
