[영화] 월드워Z 속편 제작될 듯 !
[IGN] Paramount, Brad Pitt Want World War Z 2
With World War Z scoring Brad Pitt's biggest opening weekend ever, it's no surprise that Paramount is ready to hit the ground running with a sequel.
The apocalyptic tentpole earned $66 million at the domestic box office and $45.8 million from its first 25 foreign markets.
In fact, World War Z was originally envisioned as a trilogy, but that idea was shelved when the production ran into much-reported trouble, requiring an extensive rewrite of the third act and pushing the release date back from December 2012 to June.
Of course, WWZ has since been met with generally positive reviews and a strong box office start. The studio is confident that the film will make back its $190 million budget, as evidenced by its willingness to pursue it as a franchise.
While attending the Moscow premiere last week, Pitt himself hinted at a sequel and mentioned that there is still plenty of material left over from Max Brooks' novel, upon which World War Z is based.

반응이 뜨거운가 보군요.
본문처럼 처음부터 트릴로지로 나왔더라면 더 완성도 있었겠지만,
원작의 깨알같은 에피소드와 장점들 중 1편에 미처 소개되지 못한 부분이 많으니 시퀄 작업이 그리 어려울 것 같지는 않네요.
(설마 세계대전 z '외전'에 소개된, '사실 OO들도 좀비 퇴치에 크게 기여했다'는 설정도 나오는 것은 아니겠죠?? ㅎ)
