World War Z Reviews, Interviews & More
The term "viral video" is close to meaningless as studios and companies have latched on to the idea. They don't spread like keyboard cat, with interested parties passing them videos amongst themselves, they spread because a studio launches them into the world and tell everyone about it. World War Z is the latest movie to embrace this craze by suggesting that crisis in...
One of the summer's biggest question marks is Marc Forster's World War Z, which Paramount delayed from the end of 2012, into June 2013 and hired new writers to punch up/totally re-write the ending. Did they have enough good stuff to make all those reshoots (supposedly there were more recently) worth it? Perhaps. Check out the new trailer that plays up the global...
There’s not much more that we can say about the Super Bowl TV spot for Marc Forster's upcoming zombie apocalypse film World War Z than we already noted in the headline—the 30 second clip basically crams in some loud Inception orchestral bleats, some heavy CGI, and Brad Pitt’s remarkably goofy haircut before abruptly ending so that we...
Next Sunday we'll finally get what we've all been waiting for – Tina Fey and Amy Poehler making fun of Hollywood, together, in front of a bunch of drunk celebrities. A new promo, featuring the comediennes has been released, and it's just as good as the first. You can see it below, as well as a promo poster featuring the BFF's in high-top chucks. We also have a bunch of new images from movies...
After months and months of bad press—director Marc Forster (Quantum of Solace) has lost control of the production, massive budget and scheduling overruns, rewrite after rewrite, extensive alterations from Max Brooks’ novel, etc.—World War Z finally got a 30 second preview earlier this week, which didn’t tell us much...
World War Z hasn’t exactly had an easy go of things. Rumor has it that Marc Forster (yes, the director who was similarly in over his head with Quantum of Solace) lost control of the production, with budget overruns, constant script rewrites, and ghost direction forcing the film to move from a December 2012 release to a much more distant...
There's been a lot of high profile schedule changes lately, as we've seen many of the biggest and most expensive films from 2012 get moved to 2013. Man of Steel, The Great Gatsby, Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, Jack the Giant Killer, Gangster Squad, Gravity,...

Earlier this month, we reported to you that the increasingly troubled World War Z production will be entering into six to seven weeks of reshoots to reshape the film’s second half, with rewrites provided by Prometheus writer Damon Lindelof. After much speculation, The Hollywood Reporter has delivered the inside scoop as to what went wrong with the production—a...
Prometheus and Lost writer Damon Lindelof has been drafted in to help salvage zombie epic World War Z, the big screen adaptation of Max Brooks’ popular novel that is now notably entering a seven-week stretch of reshoots. All eyes have fallen on the project after its release date was pushed back six months… after all, it’s...
Well, this isn’t entirely surprising.
News broke today that World War Z, the Brad Pitt-starring, Marc Forster-directed adaptation of the Max Brooks novel might be evolving from a single-film adaptation and into a three-movie franchise, all of which will star Pitt as a UN fact-finder up against a world-wide zombie pandemic.
Well, this is sure to miff World War Z fans—turns out that the Brad Pitt-starring film adaptation of Max Brooks’ hyper-popular World War Z novel (in which planet Earth is overrun by a zombie infestation) has tinkered with the novel’s original storyline, leaving some concerned that hardcore fans of the novel will revolt against the film.

After being locked in the throes of development hell, it looks like World War Z, the Brad Pitt-starring adaptation of Max Brooks’ novel, World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War, is back from the dead (see what I did there? Back from the dead! ‘Cause it’s a story about a zombie apocalypse! Get it? Get it?... Ahem. I’m...
For a while there after Zack Snyder's Dawn of the Dead remake, everything seemed to be coming up Zombie. Horror cycles through certain ideas, and the undead became a staple. This trend seems to be dead as Paramount is - according to Vulture - balking at making World War Z for a $125 Million dollar price tag. The film was to star...
