Zombies — trendier than yesterday’s vampires — will hit the big screen on the first day of winter 2012, as Paramount releases “World War Z” on December 21 of next year, the studio announced Tuesday.
Brad Pitt stars in and is producing the thriller, now shooting in England. The movie completed initial photography in Malta last month and also will also shoot in Scotland and Hungary.
Speculation is rife in Falmouth this morning that Brad Pitt has arrived in the town to start filming today.
Filming begins on the motion picture World War Z today, with hundreds of extras getting an early morning call.
In the last half an hour the yellow SD Salmoor, an admiralty salvage vessel, could be seen in Falmouth Docks with hundreds of people on deck, dressed in dark greens, browns and khaki clothing.
Brad Pitt’s new zombie movie World War Z may have hit a snag after it was reported that two of his co-stars, Matthew Fox and Ed Harris, quit the project.
According to Vulture.com, the film is currently in pre-production on the Mediterranean island, Contactmusic reported.
It has been revealed that Fox, 44, quit the film due to a conflict in schedule.
But the reason behind 60-year-old Harris’ departure is not known.
