Joe Manganiello, Christian Slater, Vanessa Hudgens, Yetide Badaki, Harry Lennix, Ross Butler, Anya Chalotra, Jena Malone, Christina Wren and Nolan North have all joined the quickly growing voice cast of anime series “Army of the Dead: Lost Vegas” at Netflix.
The project is a series spin-off of Zack Snyder’s upcoming zombie horror heist thriller “Army of the Dead” which stars Dave Bautista, Ana De La Reguera, Tig Notaro, Omari Hardwick and Ella Purnell. All of them will reprise their roles for the series.
Snyder’s live action movie is currently in post-production and follows a group of mercenaries who try to pull off the greatest heist ever attempted in a zombie-infested Las Vegas. The anime will chronicle the origin story of Bautista’s character and his rescue crew during the initial fall of Vegas as they confront the mysterious source of the zombie outbreak.
No debut date is currently set although it is expected to hit in 2021. Snyder will direct two episodes of the anime series while Jay Oliva will act as showrunner and also direct two episodes.
