Army of The Dead is set to hit Netflix next month, and on the decaying heels of the recent trailer, director Zack Snyder has take to Twitter to share a series of new character posters.
The banners introduce protagonist Scott Ward (Dave Bautista) and his crew of mercenaries, who are known collectively as Las Vengeance (nice).
There's Cruz the "fearless right hand," Vanderohe "the philosopher," Dieter "the safecracker," Peters "the pilot," Lilly "the coyote," Kate "the estranged daughter," Geeta "the determined mother," and Cummings "the enforcer."
Finally, it looks like the new strain of "smart" zombies our heroes will have to contend with have an undead leader of their own: King Zeus!
Army of the Dead will mark 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 actually wind up being a direct sequel, since Snyder has previously referred to it as a "spiritual successor" to his 2006 film.
There is also an anime prequel in the works that'll focus on Ward's origin and the events surrounding the zombie outbreak.
Army of the Dead is set to premiere on Netflix on May 21.
