World War Z 2 is the sequel to the 2013 film, World War Z, which grossed $540 million worldwide. It’s about a zombie apocalypse that has swept across the globe and left the world in ruins. A mysterious organization known as “The Legion” appears and the story begins.
It would be a spoiler to reveal anything about the sequel. You should know that it’s based on the best-selling novel of the same name by Max Brooks. The name of book is a World War Z. It follows a group of survivors who must work together to escape from a zombie apocalypse.
At its core, the first film showed humanity’s best efforts to save itself. Now, even though a lot of work needed to achieve this feast. As Gerry Lane says in the movie’s final moments, there is still much to do. The fight must continue.
If a sequel is coming, Brad Pitt would return as Gerry Lane in his main role. He has agreed to return to the franchise as an UN investigator.
But whether or not a production date is set will determine whether or not Pitt will reprise his starring role.
In May 2016, Mireille Enos announced that she’ll reprise her role as Karin Lane.
It’s unclear where things are now, nearly four years after the events of the movie, and, unfortunately, no new casting surfaces.
Hang on, folks, because the movie was getting real tricky, real fast.
In preparation for the movie adaptation of Max Brooks’ zombie-apocalypse novel World War Z, Brad Pitt will reprise his role as Gerry Lane. World War Z 2 will hit theaters on June 21, 2018.
In the aftermath of J.A. Bayona’s exit, as it shuffled around. It was pulled from its previously announced release date.
Brad Pitt reprises his role as Antoine Macauley in the action thriller film, “World War Z 2”. It is about to hit theatres on May 21st, 2019.
At the 2016 Oscars, Leonardo DiCaprio’s film “The Revenant” won the best picture award. The plot is a true story about a man who sets off into the frozen wilderness to hunt down and kill a bear.
That delay allowed Pitt, in early 2018, to begin filming his next collaboration with Quentin Tarantino. This prevented the project from getting underway sooner.
But then, Pitt’s commitment to his show Mindhunter, on Netflix, meant that instead of beginning to work on WWZ2 at the end of 2018, the director would be heading up his series, instead.
In other words, the production company may not have a finished script or even cast yet, so they’re highly unlikely to release it in 2019.
The sequel to this movie wasn’t to come out until 2017, but that didn’t happen either. It hasn’t even shot yet.
The movie, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, begins shooting this October. This means that the production will begin later in the year.
Production began on Mindhunter season two in June 2018 and that meant that shooting was going to begin in March 2019 instead, but that date delayed back to December.
China’s ban on zombie movies makes it very difficult to make a sequel to “World War Z” at the moment, so it will be a while before Paramount decides whether or not to move ahead with the sequel.
At this point, the sequel is as dead as a zombie shot in the head. But you never know; it might be resurrected later.
In June 2016, Marc Forster directed the sequel to World War Z 2. The film stars Brad Pitt, Mireille Enos, and Daniella Kertes
The reason for this delay is simple: the first film was a huge hit, and they wanted to make sure that they could make a sequel that would do well, too. Max Brooks, the writer and director of the original film, had to be sure they would be able to reclaim the rights to the film.
In this conclusion, the fact that a zombie film is still making money is a testament to the power of the genre, but also to the enduring appeal of zombies. You don’t need a blockbuster hit to be a zombie film success. In fact, the opposite is often true. A great zombie film can do just as well at the box office as a blockbuster. This is because the zombies themselves are the stars, and the audience is willing to pay to see them in action.
