Ruben Fleischer Says Zombieland 3 Talks Are Underway With 2029 Target

The director says the threequel remains ungreenlit, dependent on scheduling.

Overview

  • Fleischer told Deadline that early discussions have started to keep the franchise’s decade-apart cadence after films in 2009 and 2019.
  • He hopes to deliver the third film in 2029, aligning with the reunion concept reportedly floated during Double Tap’s production.
  • The project has not received a greenlight, and progress hinges on a script and deals for the busy core cast.
  • Jesse Eisenberg has signaled he wants to return, with prior reports also noting interest from Woody Harrelson.
  • Fleischer says other projects are ready to go and he is eyeing a vampire Western, while Double Tap previously earned $122.8 million worldwide with weaker reviews than the original.
