In an interview with Deadline, the 51-year-old filmmaker added, “I’m hoping that we’ll do a Zombieland 3 in 2029…”
“We’re starting to talk about that because [the first] one was 2009, and then we did the second one in 2019, and we kind of left that one all saying, ‘We’ll see you in 10 years’ That’s coming up now, and so we’re starting to figure that out, so I’m hoping that’ll come together.”
