Zack Snyder’s zombie movie Army of the Dead is getting two different follow-up projects, including a prequel anime series titled “Army of the Dead: Lost Vegas.” The other project is a live-action prequel movie titled Army of Thieves, and we’ve got a poster today.
The prequel movie will be coming to Netflix this Fall, and ahead of the film’s panel at the virtual San Diego Comic-Con on Sunday, July 25, Snyder has debuted the official poster art.
“Dieter is back, with more safes and less zombies,” Snyder teases, suggesting that the Army of the Dead spinoff movie doesn’t actually feature zombies. It would seem the movie takes place prior to the zombie apocalypse, deviating from the horror genre entirely. Interesting…
Matthias Schweighöfer is directing Army of Thieves, a prequel movie that will center on his character that we first met in Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead. His name is Dieter.
In Army of Thieves…
“Small-town bank teller Dieter gets drawn into the adventure of a lifetime when a mysterious woman recruits him to join a crew of Interpol’s most wanted criminals, attempting to heist a sequence of legendary, impossible-to-crack safes across Europe.”
Announced today, Nathalie Emmanuel, Ruby O. Fee, Stuart Martin, Guz Khan, Jonathan Cohen, and Noémie Nakai star alongside Matthias Schweighöfer in Army of Thieves.
Screenplay by Shay Hatten & Story by Zack Snyder & Shay Hatten.
Producers for the prequel movie include Zack Snyder and Deborah Snyder.
