Pitt to produce and star in ‘World War Z’
Jul25
I’m torn here… On the one hand I hate Brad Pitt for various ridiculous and immature reasons… On the other hand he’s bring to movie theaters the movie version of Max Brook’s “World War Z.”
I’m So conflicted.
News Blatantly stolen from The Independent.
The film rights to author Max Brooks’ zombie book World War Z have been bought by Brad Pitt to be adapted for his production company Plan B, MTV reported. Pitt also plans to act in the film. The movie is planned for release during summer 2012.
I just hope they stick to the book and not steal the name and tack it on a formula B movie. While I love zombie B movies, World War Z was more about humanity then zombies and really set itself apart from the norm for the monster book genre.
The book has multiple narrators, I don’t know how they are going to make him the “Star” of the movie.
I guess they could make him the interviewer… I guess.
