Brad Pitt versus zombies in new World War Z ad!

Last Updated on July 23, 2021

Here’s a new WORLD WAR Z spot that highlights the movie’s horror element a little more, which is certainly nice to see. I’m all for the global epic angle Paramount has been pushing thus far, but when we’re talking zombies, we need some zombie-killing, and looks like ol Brad Pitt takes at least one member of the undead down with an axe in the flick. (An acquaintance informs him that it’s a bad idea to do so, however, as it “makes the others more aggressive”. Interesting.)

Check out the teaser below and let us know what you think!

WORLD WAR Z opens on June 21st:

The story revolves around United Nations employee Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt), who traverses the world in a race against time to stop the Zombie pandemic that is toppling armies and governments and threatening to decimate humanity itself.
