Brad Pitt Producing World War ZI guess having a kid with Angelina Jolie makes you more of a big shot than starring in the highest grossing movie of all time…

Paramount Pictures has acquired screen rights to the Max Brooks novel World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War in a deal reportedly in the high-six-figure range. Brad Pitt will produce. The novel sparked a bidding battle with Paramount and Pitt on one side and Warner Bros. and Leonardo DiCaprio on the other. Team Pitt won.

The book is described as a sober telling of the aftermath of a war fought against a legion of humans who were inflicted with a virus, died and were reanimated into flesh-eating zombies. “World War Z” will be published in the fall.
