‘Zombieland 2’ is Official With Director Ruben Fleischer and All Stars Returning; Set for 2019 Release!
Zombieland writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick have recently been teasing that a sequel to 2009’s Zombieland was *probably* happening at some point, and they even recently noted that they hoped to get the sequel done and released in time for the first film’s 10th anniversary in 2019. Well folks, Zombieland 2 is finally official, we’ve learned tonight!
Deadline reports that Woody Harrelson, Emma Stone, Jesse Eisenberg and Abigail Breslin have all signed on to reprise their roles, with Ruben Fleischer back in the director’s chair!
Wernick and Reese are also back to write the script.
The film will begin production January 2019 and has an October 2019 release date.
In Zombieland 2, “through comic mayhem that stretches from the White House and through the heartland, the Zombie slayers must face off against many new kinds of zombies that have evolved since the first movie, as well as some new human survivors. But most of all, they have to face the growing pains of their own snarky, makeshift family.”
Gavin Polone returns as producer, with Reese and Wernick executive producing.
Sony returns to their own Marvel universe with the upcoming Kraven the Hunter, which has been bumped all over the release schedule. This week, it’s been bumped once more.
There was a time when Sony was going to unleash Kraven in theaters in October 2023, but the film was then bumped to August 2024. It’ll now release on December 13, 2024.
Kraven the Hunter will be the very first Marvel movie from Sony to be released into theaters with an “R” rating, with lots of bloody violence being promised.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the title character, Marvel’s ultimate predator.
“Kraven the Hunter is the visceral story about how and why one of Marvel’s most iconic villains came to be. Set before his notorious vendetta with Spider-Man, Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the titular character in the R-rated film.”
Ariana DeBose will play Calypso in the upcoming Kraven the Hunter movie.
Christopher Abbott (Possessor) is playing The Foreigner, with Levi Miller (Better Watch Out) also on board. Alessandro Nivola (The Many Saints of Newark) will play another villain, but character details are under wraps. Russell Crowe and Fred Hechinger also star.
