For those of you who enjoyed your encounter with Stephen Sommer‘s G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra last summer, there’s more to come. We all had a feeling that another Joe film would be in the works, but no official writer was attached to take on the project. But over at Collider, they’ve got word that a scribe has been hired for a new film, which means Paramount has every intention of moving along with the sequel.
Grab the nearest thing to you that could be considered a weapon and come on down to Zombieland, where you get points for the most creative way to kill a zombie! Actually, leave the weapons at home, Ruben Fleischer’s film will supply you with all the comedic violence you’ll need. If you loved Drag Me to Hell you’ll be glad to see that there is another movie out there for you to laugh at cringe all at the same time.

Last week out on Santa Monica pier Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Emma Stone, director Ruben Fleischer and the two writers of the film Rhett Reese and Paul Wernic all got together once again (check out the videos from the press conference at Comic-Con) to talk about Zombieland! I kind of wish they would have had some people, better yet, children like the one above dressed as zombies to jump out and scare the journalists. Sadly, that never happened, although they did talk about killing them some zombies, Harrelson’s plea to Hostess to make a healthy Twinkie, their most cathartic moments in making it, and of course, the mysterious CAMEO which shall go un-named… for now.
Check out what the group had to say about making a comedic zombie film…
The writing duo of the upcoming film Zombieland, Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese, were hired by Sony to write the new Spider-Man spin-off. According to the two writers, the script is already being written and is top secret.
“We’re under strict orders on Venom,” Wernick said. “We can’t talk about it. It’s just super secret.”
Although, the two writers did give a little something up. They admitted to being huge fans of the villain of the upcoming film, Venom and are making sure that their research and portrayal of Venom is not half-assed (i.e Spider-Man 3).
Reese stated in an interview:
