World War Z 2
David Fincher state his involvement with coming sequelWorld War ezed 2is entirely dependent on the timber of the book . The originalWorld warfare Zweathered a famously troubled production , where star Brad Pitt allegedly clashed with director Marc Forster and filming delays contribute to costly budget overrun .
The film even reshot its intact third act , result in an expensivebattle sequencein Russia being entirely removed . DespiteWorld War Z’swell - publicized bother , the plastic film still end up being a collision , and talk of a continuation before long popped up . J.A. Bayona sign on as film director but departed in 2016 to helmJurassic Park : Fallen Kingdominstead . People were surprised to discover David Fincher was circling the labor in the month afterwards – and downright KO’d when heofficially signedon in June 2017 .
mouth ofWorld War Z 2has been restrained since then . However , in a new audience with theEmpire Podcast , Fincher briefly touched on the sequel ’s status . When answer a interrogation about his current projects , the director had this to say :
“ I worked on a show for HBO that did n’t see the light of 24-hour interval and at the same time was doing [ Mindhunter ] , and did [ Mindhunter ] and I ’ve been working for about a twelvemonth now with Dennis Kelly on World War Z … We’re hop to get a slice of material that ’s a cause to make a picture , not an excuse to make a movie . ”
It sounds like Fincher wo n’t be make a motion out front on the subsequence until he ’s has a storey he ’s happy with , so his involvement is n’t of necessity sure . It would be interesting to see what a film producer like Fincher would do with a mega - budget blockbuster , peculiarly if he ’s hold creative control . The director ’s last brush with a big franchise subsequence was his entry featureAlien 3 ; give his nightmarish experience making that , his caveat approachingWorld War Z 2is intelligible .
Hopefully , the sequel will also eviscerate further inspiration from Max Brooks ’ excellent source novel . World War Zused petty of the book outside of the form of address and canonical concept ; a decisiveness that disappointed fans of the novel and the author himself . There are so many grotesque sequences and part right for cinematic version . The original movie also meet somewhat from its PG-13 rating , and this elbow grease to inflect down the gore ultimately made it feel a little tame .
