World War Z part 2

Marc Forster Out For World War Z Sequel

One of the more unlikely box-office success stories of this past summer, Brad Pitt’s zombie epic World War Z, had a very difficult journey to theaters. Years of development led to a long and bumpy production (including a raid by the Hungarian Counter Terrorism Centre on the film’s Budapest set) and one of the most troublesome post-production periods in recent memory, during which the film’s ending was extensively rewritten and reshot.

Most of the stress around the making of World War Z, not to mention its ballooning budget, likely weighed on the shoulders of director Marc Forster (Quantum of Solace). So, as Paramount moves forward with a sequel to the film, it’s not exactly shocking that Forster has opted to step away from the project.

News of his departure from the series broke during a profile on Plan B, Brad Pitt’s film production company, in The Hollywood Reporter.

Plan B also is developing a sequel to Z, which still is in its nascent stages, though director Marc Forster won’t be back. “We are talking about it,” says Pitt. “We are going to investigate a script. We have a lot of ideas we will cull from. Nobody is writing just yet, but we are compiling our ideas.”

The movie was better than I expected. A sequel could be interesting, if done RIGHT.
