With World War Z currently filming, we've had plenty of new stories, including set photos and casting information. We now have an official release date, courtesy of Box Office Mojo. Paramount will be giving World War Z a Christmas release on December 21st, 2012.
Based on the Max Brooks novel, World War Z is directed by Marc Forster (Quantum of Solace) and stars Brad Pitt, Mireille Enos, Matthew Fox, and James Badge.
“World War Z tells the story of the world’s desperate battle against the zombie threat with a series of first-person accounts ‘as told to the author’ by various characters around the world. A Chinese doctor encounters one of the earliest zombie cases at a time when the Chinese government is ruthlessly suppressing any information about the outbreak that will soon spread across the globe. The tale then follows the outbreak via testimony of smugglers, intelligence officials, military personnel and many others who struggle to defeat the zombie menace.”
