Former Party of Five star and Lost actor Matthew Fox has signed on to play the role of a para-jumper in the big adaption of World War Z, the zombie extravaganza being directed by Marc Forster. Along with Brad Pitt, actors Mirielle Enos and Anthony Mackie are also committed to the 2014 project. The plot takes place ten years after the human race finally overthrows brutal zombies that had taken over the planet, with stories and accounts that delve into the aftermath of the war.
World War Z is expected to be one of the biggest film adaptions on the horizon. With the book already a success, and a movie in the making with Pitt in the lead, Fox is a great addition to the cast, as well as Ed Harris who is also said to be in considerations. Filming is scheduled to take place this summer in Glasgow, Scotland, not Philadelphia where the actual book is set.
Meanwhile, Fox is also said to be on board the I, Alex Cross franchise where he has taken on the part of villain, Michael Sullivan, joining Tyler Perry, who will headline the thriller. Alright ShockYa readers, what do you think about Fox’s new move to World War Z? Drop us a line below.
