TV: Zombies Rising at MTV with Dawn of the Dead

Bloody Disgusting has exclusively learned that MTV is in talks for the rights to turn George A. Romero's classic "Dawn of the Dead" into a TV series!

Zack Snyder, who directed the 2004 remake, will not be involved at this time.


For those of you wondering about what kind of zombies will be used, talk indicates a wide variety (running and slow). It will be more of a spin-off than original production.

Obviously, when a screenwriter is attached, there might be some changes. We'll let you know when the dotted line is signed.

I thought AMC was already developing a zombie series.

They are.

I think with the current vampire obsession going on that many are trying to bring the other horror elements (werewolves and zombies) to television.
