David Fincher in Talks to Direct World War Z Sequel

If Fincher indeed ends up directing World War Z, it will mark only the second sequel on his long resume, which of course includes classics like The Game, Fight Club, and Seven.

While a sequel to World War Z was already fairly highly anticipated by the masses, the addition of a powerhouse director like Fincher will only increase its appeal.

World War Z 2 was previously assigned a June 9, 2017 release date, but Paramount is expected to push that back.
