Confused yet? Natalie Portman is the perfect actress to do a remake of one of Jane Austen’s classics. However, this remake of ‘Pride and Prejudice’ adds an interesting twist: zombies. It’s called ‘Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.’
Described as an expanded version of the Austen classic, the book tells the timeless story of a woman’s quest for love and independence amid the outbreak of a deadly virus that turns the undead into vicious killers.
Portman will play feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet, who is distracted from her quest to eradicate the zombie menace by the arrival of the arrogant Mr. Darcy.
Well, I was just complaining about Hollywood doing so many remakes. This is a remake but with a twist I NEVER would’ve thought of! Yet Natalie’s involvement gives the project some credibility for me ![]()
What do you think? Are you interested?

Jane must be rolling over in her grave.
i was soooooooo excited about pride & prejudice & zombies, but when i started reading it i was horribly disappointed. i thought it was a great idea, but really poorly executed.
yep and they put her as co-author on the book.
She looks all grown up in this pics.
I don’t see in what way this book/movie ruins a classic. The classic is STILL a classic, with all it’s classic-ness intact. The new zombie version takes nothing away from the original version.
urggggg another remake…. zombies??? no thanks.
not interested. she looks nice though.
lame! its like dawn/shaun of the dead but with more olden day, complex language and romance.
I’ve probably read Pride & Prejudice 8 times and when I read the expanded version by Seth Smith, I couldn’t stop laughing! I’m glad they’re making a movie of the “new version”.
Maybe Jane Austen herself will make an apperance. Is this suppose to be funny? If it is a comedy it will be hilarous if they make Portman fake an English accent again. This just sounds too ridculously amazing to be true.
Someone actually wrote a book called Pride and Prejudice and Zombies giving Jane Austen co writing credit? I am stunned!
This sounds like it sucks, just like American television, however in my mind natalie portman is a godessssss I would sell my own kids just to spend one night with her. j/k I wouldn’t sell my kids
Just loan them out
mehh
In the impending Zombie Apocalypse (oh yeah, it’s gonna happen, people), I would feed her piecemeal to the Zombies to save my own ass. That’s how much I like her.
Just another way for people to ruin literary classics…..
You are so right! Pride & Prejudice is my favorite and I can’t imagine them ruining it like that. Zombies? You’ve got to be kidding me!
Zombies are cool, but this movie doesn’t sound very interesting
this book was awesome, can’t wait to see what hollywood does with it.
umm…I’ll pass.
i don’t really care for the movie, but i love her purse!
i refused to read the book or watch the movie. I think its terrible to mess with a classic like that. there is also sense and sensibility and sea monsters.
Yeah, it’s based on a book, so it isn’t Hollywood ruining it.
I think you Austen fans should give it a try. P&P is one of my all-time favorite books, and I loooooooooved P&P and Zombies.
Great – now they’re going to ruin another classic. Just let it be!!!
