Already announced for the project are Dave Bautista, Ella Purnell, Ana De La Reguera, Theo Rossi and Huma Qureshi.

Snyder is filming Army of the Dead in New Mexico now and plans to move the production to New Jersey when he is done.

"Following a zombie outbreak in Las Vegas, a group of mercenaries take the ultimate gamble, venturing into the quarantine zone to pull off the greatest heist ever attempted," a synopsis said.

In addition to Army of the Dead, Snyder is also working on a Norse mythology anime series for Netflix.

Snyder's credits include Dawn of the Dead, Watchmen, 300, Man of Steel and Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice.

The most recent film he directed was 2017's Justice League. He left the production shortly before it was finished, however, to deal with the suicide of his 20-year-old daughter Autumn. Joss Whedon completed the film in his absence.
