While at the Toronto International Film Festival, Variety caught up with mega-star Brad Pitt, who spoke about the sequel to the surprising monster hit World War Z, which to date has made a whopping $500 million. Not too shabby!
“We’re certainly talking about it, yeah. We have so many ideas on the table from just the time we spent developing this thing and figuring out how zombie worlds work. We have so many ideas and so much information, we think we have a lot of stuff to mine from. We’re going to do our best and see what we get out of it.”
