Coming on the (high) heels of the new trailer for PRIDE & PREJUDICE & ZOMBIES, we have a new poster for the horrific period piece. It’s in the same vein as the first poster, which similarly featured a proper young lady having a really bad face day.
Lily James, Sam Riley, Jack Huston, Bella Heathcote, Douglas Booth, Matt Smith with Charles Dance and Lena Headey star in the adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith’s book, which goes like this:
A zombie outbreak has fallen upon the land in this reimagining of Jane Austen’s classic tale of the tangled relationships between lovers from different social classes in 19th century England. Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet (Lily James) is a master of martial arts and weaponry and the handsome Mr. Darcy (Sam Riley) is a fierce zombie killer, yet the epitome of upper class prejudice. As the zombie outbreak intensifies, they must swallow their pride and join forces on the blood-soaked battlefield in order to conquer the undead once and for all.
The Burr Steers-directed film opens on February 5th.
