Chuck Norris and Vanilla Ice Are Set To Star in a Secret Agent Zombie Movie ZOMBIE PLANE
In today’s news of things I thought I’d never see, martial arts master and overall badass Chuck Norris is teaming up with 90s pop star Vanilla Ice in a secret agent zombie film project titled Zombie Plane. They will be joined by Australian singer-turned-actress Sophie Monk.
This whole thing just seems absolutely insane, it’s like an April Fool’s prank, but this is real! The project is coming from Australian production and distribution banner Radioactive and U.S. production company Entertainment Squad.
Zombie Plane centers on “a secret government organization that recruits celebrities to be undercover agents, who together must save humanity from an imminent zombie attack. Norris, Ice and Monk play themselves (actually, Norris plays Commander Chuck Norris, who mentored and trained Ice into becoming a deadly secret agent), but the feature is reportedly full of celebrity cameos, with a ’90s pop soundtrack including tracks by Ice himself.”
Well, that just sounds wonderful. This movie seems like it has the makings of becoming something absolutely bonkers and I can’t wait to watch it!
Producer and Radioactive managing director Jessica Butland said in a statement: “Audiences can expect a wild ride. Vanilla Ice is in his element as secret agent and Chuck Norris having trained him is excellent and it just works.”
Executive producer and Entertainment Squad founder Shaked Berenson (Turbo Kid, Tales of Halloween) added: “Zombie Plane uses comedy, the zombie genre and ’90s nostalgia as a vehicle, to comment on pop-culture as much as it feeds it, creating unforgettable one-liners and situational comedy ‘to the extreme.'”
The movie will be directed by Lav Bodnaruk and Michael Pier of Chop Shop Post, which is a post-production and VFX house that has worked on Paramount+’s Last King of the Cross and Amazon’s Trope. The film was shot earlier this year.
