James Badge Dale (The Pacific, Rubicon) is in negotiations to join the zombie horror adaptation of Max Brooks’ WORLD WAR Z. The anticipated feature is helmed by Marc Forster who will direct from a script penned by Matthew Michael Carnahan, which is a sober telling of the aftermath of a war fought against a legion of humans who were inflicted with a virus, died and were re-animated into flesh-eating zombies.
Pitt will also produce along with Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner, Colin Wilson and Brad Simpson is set to executive produce.
Dale is repped by CAA and MJ Entertainment.
