Also unlcear is whether this series is intended to be on a streaming service or cable channel (a broadcast network is extremely unlikely). Levine will be doing plenty more projects through his Megamix production banner, though it's not clear how involved he'll be with the Warm Bodies TV series. Joe and Nathan have been great collaborators and friends who have supported me over the years and are as committed as Gillian and I are to nurture unique, creative and commercial visions and we couldn't be more thrilled."
"Lionsgate is the perfect home for Megamix, a studio to both my most successful and favorite moviemaking experiences. Clearly he likes what Lionsgate has done for his career, as he said in a statement: Levine has a solid history with Lionsgate, including the outstanding comedic drama 50/50 starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen, as well as the upcoming romantic comedy Long Shot starring Rogen and Charlize Theron. Plus, there's also a prequel called The New Hunger that focuses on a 12-year old girl who has grown up in this zombie world and also introduces "R" just as he awakes as a zombie. But the rest of the world isn't so keen to embrace the evolving zombies. The sequel, titled The Burning World, finds "R" continuing to make progress by re-learning how to read, speak and maybe even truly love.
However, how can the book series be satisfyingly stretched out to an entire TV show? Well, it just so happens there are more books that Isaac Marion wrote.Īt the end of Warm Bodies, living humans start embracing the undead as they slowly start to become less zombie-like. But no one had approached the tired trope of zombies in this fashion before, and that on its own was refreshing. Warm Bodies was truly original as far as romantic comedies go, though it was based on the novel of the same name by Isaac Marion. If you need a refresher on this movie, here's the official trailer: Lionsgate announced news of the Warm Bodies series today as the first project from a new first-look film and TV deal with the film's director, Jonathan Levine.
