The sequel to the popular 2009 horror comedy film “Zombieland” is still happening as Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese have revealed that they are currently writing the screenplay for the film.
“That is breaking news that we’re on ‘Zombieland 2’ right now,” Wernick and Reese said on talk show “Geeking Out”, reports aceshowbiz.com.
They added that they will discuss the next step with actor Woody Harrelson.
“We’re sitting with Woody tomorrow and are going to sort of walk him through some of the stuff we want to do. All the cast is pretty excited.”
It is unclear whether the original cast including Emma Stone, Jesse Eisenberg and Abigail Breslin will return to the sequel as the two screenwriters haven’t given any comments.
Wernick and Reese, who just finished writing the screenplay for “Deadpool 2”, also spoke about working with actor Bill Murray in “Zombieland”. They explained that before Murray took the role, several legendary actors including Mark Hamill and Sylvester Stallone were eyed to take the role.
