Army of the Dead: Lost Vegas is an upcoming anime series coming to Netflix, which will serve as a prequel to Zack Snyder's live-action zombie heist movie that's set to hit the streaming service in 2021.

Now, eleven new cast members have been added to the Army of the Dead spinoff which is set to revolve around the origin of Dave Bautista's character, Scott. The show will follow him and his rescue crew during the initial fall of Vegas as they confront the mysterious source of the zombie outbreak.

As you can see below, Joe Manganiello (Justice League), Christian Slater (Mr. Robot), Harry Lennix (Man of Steel), Anya Chalotra (The Witcher), Ross Butler (13 Reasons Why), Vanessa Hudgens (High School Musical), Jena Malone (Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice), Yetide Badaki (American Gods), Christina Wren (Man of Steel), Monica Barbaro (The Good Cop), and Nolan North (Marvel's Avengers) are all going to star in Lost Vegas

That's an incredible cast, and there's already a lot of excitement surrounding the series, which will see Snyder direct a couple of episodes and Joy Oliva serve as both showrunner and director.

A live-action prequel movie is already in development starring and directed by Matthias Schweighöfer.

You know a few years ago, id probably say, fine ill give it a shot, but all this snyder cut bullshit and his 2 years of lying to his fans have me saying


Snyder is on my list of directors that I will not knowingly, willingly watch, along with M Night Shyamalan.

Id say Snyder's take on Batman and Superman was as bad as

@dracula - M Night has made a ton of great movies. Split from 2017 was pretty solid, and Unbreakable is incredible. Your loss, I guess.

@tmp3 - He had a few good ones early on, but after Unbreakable, it was all down hill, with Split being the only exception (someone rented it so had to watch it), wow Glass sucked

@obredaan -
Snyder owes him a living since he is unemployable elsewhere.
