Jesse Eisenberg Confirms ‘Zombieland’ Sequel Still in Progress
Last week Jesse Eisenberg sat down with Entertainment Weekly to talk his upcoming role in Batman V Superman, and had some exciting things to say about Zombieland 2.
“There’s been some talk that Zombieland 2 is still in the works at Sony. Yeah, it’d be wonderful to do. I know they’ve been trying to do it for a while, and I know they’re trying to figure out exactly what will occur in it. But it’s a kind of movie that, as soon as it came out, seemed appropriate to generate a sequel. … It takes place in this odd, created world and features an ensemble of interesting characters that it’d be curious to see more of. I would hope that it happens, and I’m sure everybody would be happy to do it if it happens and it’s good. It’s also a strangely beloved movie, so it’s a thing you have to get right. Some sequels you don’t have to get exactly right, but this is the kind of movie you have to get right because people like it for personal reasons, even though it’s a zombie comedy.”
Sounds like it’s happening, just verrrry slowly.
The first Zombieland premiered in 2009.
