Though we've yet to see so much as a teaser trailer for Zack Snyder's Army of the Dead (it's said to be coming early 2021), production has now wrapped on the prequel film that's also expected to premiere on Netflix at some point next year.
The Justice League director took to Twitter to announce that work has been completed on the zombie horror flick, which appears to be officially titled Army of the Dead: The Prequel. Snyder also shared a new look at the main characters played by Nathalie Emmanuel, Stuart Martin, Guz Khan, Ruby O'Fee and Matthias Schweighöfer, who also directed the movie.
Plot details are few and far between, but the prequel is expected to focus on several of the characters we'll meet in Army of the Dead pre zombie apocalypse.
Army of the Dead marks Snyder's return to the genre after his well-received remake of George Romero's classic Dawn of the Dead. There's been some speculation that AOTD could be a direct sequel, since Snyder has previously referred to it as a "spiritual successor" to his 2006 film.
There is also an Army of the Dead anime in the works that'll focus on Dave Bautista's character.
