Lionsgate/Summit Entertainment have released the first official trailer for Warm Bodies, a zombie romance movie which stars Nicholas Hoult (X-Men: First Class) and Teresa Palmer (I Am Number Four).
With Twilight and The Hunger Games under their roof Lionsgate has the teen and young-female market well and truly covered (a demographic studios have been ignoring for years). I can see Warm Bodies being suited to that audience pretty well, and as the film actually looks decent it may find some success when it opens next year.
Watch the trailer below:
When a highly unusual zombie rescues a girl from imminent death at the hands of his cohorts, their unlikely romance sets in motion a chain of events that will transform him, his fellow dead, and maybe even the whole lifeless world.
Jonathan Levin (The Wackness, 50/50) directed the movie, which also stars Rob Corddry, John Malkovich, Analeigh Tipton, Dave Franco and Cory Hardrict. Summit will release Warm Bodies February 1st, 2013.
