According to Variety Corddry is in final negotiations to join Nicholas Hoult and Teresa Palmer in Summit Entertainment’s zombie flick Warm Bodies.
Jonathan Levine (50/50) is writing and directing the supernatural romancer, which is based on the novel by Isaac Marion.
The story follows an existentially-tormented zombie who falls for the girlfriend of one of his victims and decides to protect her from his brain-eating brethren as he begins to reconnect with his dormant humanity.
Hoult stars as R, a zombie who’s different from the rest of the undead, while Corddry will play M, the only other zombie like him … at first.
Bruna Papandrea (Milk) is producing through her Make Movies banner, while Laurie Webb and Cori Shepherd Stern serve as exec producers. Summit’s Erik Feig and Gillian Bohrer will oversee the project for the studio. Production starts in September.
