Quantam of Solace director Marc Forster has been tapped to direct the much anticipated by geeks like myself, World War Z adaptation for Paramount Pictures. WW:Z is based on Max Brooks best selling novel about a worldwide zombie infestation. “Changeling” scribe J. Michael Straczynski is writing the screenplay, and Brad Pitt’s Plan B is producing. Brooks who is the son of legend Mel Brooks, wrote a story in which a researcher for the U.N. Postwar Commission interviews survivors from countries all over the world, 10 years after the crisis, to gather a first-person account of a war that decimated every country on the map. If you haven’t read the book, it’s amazing. It’s a must read for fans of the genre.
