Brad Pitt, A Zombie???

And now for something completely different!

At Comic-Con yesterday, Max Brooks, author of the zombie horror novel, World War Z, announced that Brad Pitt was attached to start in the film adaptation of the book. In fact, it was Brad's production company that grabbed the rights to the book back in 2007 and with Paramount now optioning the rights, it seems like the project will be underway soon.

The author revealed that Paramount is aiming for a summer 2012 release.

We don't exactly know if Brad will actually be playing a zombie, but even if he does, he's still going to look super fine!

Are U excited for this flick?

OMG!!! I love Max Brooks, read both of his zombie epics and Brad Pitt would bring some much needed credibility to the genre. Totally psyched.

He's a good actor, but it won't stop me from freaking out and from not being able to look at him the same again. Ever.

Perez, you should actually read the book before posting.

Brad is going to be starring as the lead character/narrator who details various accounts of the zombie war/outbreak. He will not be zombified.

I've always thought he was a zombie. The poor guy is boring as hell to listen to.
