Steven C. Miller has made quite a name for himself as a genre filmmaker, with movies like The Aggression Scale, Silent Night, and Extraction under his belt. We’re fairly certain that Miller never sleeps, as he’s always juggling several projects, and now he’s got another on his plate.
Per The Wrap, Miller will direct zombie movie Office Uprising for The Exchange from a script by Ian Shorr and Peter Gamble. Young actor Brenton Thwaites (pictured; Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales) has been cast in the lead role.
Office Uprising takes place inside one of the world’s leading arms manufacturers, where the board of directors drugs its employees to make them work more efficiently. Due to a slacker’s error, the employees are given the wrong drug and start turning into homicidal maniacs. It’s up to the slacker to rescue himself and his friends from the zombie plague that has been unleashed inside the company compound.
William Clevinger produces with Giulia Prenna. Brian O’Shea’s The Exchange will begin shopping the film to foreign buyers in Berlin this month.
