After a long production schedule that was extended by reshoots, World War Z is finally getting ready for release and the first trailer for the film has just been released.
I have to admit that I have been rather down on the project ever since it was apparent that director Marc Forester was moving away from J. Michael Straczynski’s rather faithful adaptation of Max Brooks’s original novel towards a more linear approach. Still, it does look like it has retained some elements of the book, specifically a variation of the Battle of Yonkers. While it might not be a faithful adaptation of the book, it looks like World War Z is going to be a fairly epic zombie movie.
World War Z opens June 21st, 2013.
