Synopsis

Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) has made a habit of running from what scares him. Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson) doesn't have fears. If he did, he'd kick their ever-living ass.

Zombieland 2 Isn't Dead But Jesse Eisenberg Isn't Sure It's Still Relevant

Zombieland 2 Isn't Dead But Jesse Eisenberg Isn't Sure It's Still Relevant

After the surprise box office success of Zombieland in 2009, everyone involved was quick to promise a sequel. Then everyone involved immediately ran off and did other things, managing to find ways not to work on Zombieland 2 at all. It’s kind of like what happened with Star Trek, except Star Trek is Star Trek....

UPDATE: Zombieland 2 In Doubt, Woody Harrelson Isn't A Sequel Guy

Harrelson says he isn’t so sure he wants to return to that world. He explains, “I'm sure it will happen if everyone does it, but I'm not sure it's the right thing to do.” As one of the “everyones” who would have to do it, whether or not he thinks it’s the right thing to do is sort of important. And Harrelson says, “I don't feel like a sequels guy.” Woody’s talked openly about how great he thought the first movie was, so why wouldn’t he want to do another one?...
