Enjoy your zombie love stories? Course you do! You may remember a little while back Diablo Cody’s (‘Jennifer’s Body’, ‘Juno’) name being attached to Fox Searchlight’s book to movie adaption project for S.G. Browne’s novel ‘Breathers: A Zombie’s Lament’. Cody will be producing the new feature and news comes today that potentially two interesting lead stars could be involved. Pajiba are reporting that Joseph Gordon-Levitt (‘Inception’) and Scarlett Johansson (‘Iron Man 2’ – below) are “loosely” attached!
Scribe Geoff Latulippe has reportedly finished the script and with Diablo on board I guess this potential double casting isn’t beyond the realms of believability. However, time will tell.
“Andy Warner reanimates after the car accident that kills his wife, but is too mangled from his injuries to talk. He lives in his parents’ wine cellar, occasionally attending a zombie support group and struggling to rejoin a society that offers the undead no rights, bans them from working and doesn’t even punish those who destroy them. When Andy and his fellow zombies—notably Rita, a sexy suicide victim with a lipstick fetish, and Jerry, a Playboy-obsessed stoner—learn why they’re so driven to consume human flesh, the repercussions are both tragic and hilarious. Browne neatly mixes humor and extreme violence with a surprisingly tender love story, some witty social satire and an extremely strong narrative voice.”
