Double. Tap. It’s finally happening! Vampire Academy‘s Zoey Deutch has landed the first new role in the long-delayed Zombieland 2, which will see Emma Stone, Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, and Abigail Breslin reprising their roles, says Deadline. Ruben Fleischer, who is coming off the box office success of Venom, is returning to helm the sequel.
Deutch will portray a love interest to Eisenberg’s Columbus.
In this next installment, 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.
The script is by the original film’s scribes, Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese, both of whom will also serve as exec producers. Gavin Polone is also returning to produce the film which will begin shooting early next year with a slated October 11, 2019, release date.
