Short description
After a zombie becomes involved with the girlfriend of one of his victims, their romance sets in motion a sequence of events that might transform the entire lifeless world.
What's left behind the scenes
- Initially, Nora was supposed to be African American and half Ethiopian, but they decided to cast a white actress (Analeigh Tipton) instead.
- The film is based on Isaac Marion's novel "Warm Bodies" (2010).
- The story is partially based on Shakespeare's tragedy "Romeo and Juliet", which can be guessed from the characters' names. "R" stands for "Romeo", "Julia" for "Juliet", "Perry" for "Paris", "M" for "Mercutio", and "Nora" for Juliet's "Nurse" (the Nora character in the film is a nurse).
- The actors playing zombies did not blink. This proved difficult for some, particularly Nicholas Holt, who was involved in several rather long scenes. The zombies started blinking again later, when the plot required their humanity to return.
- The story is partially based on Shakespeare's tragedy Romeo and Juliet, which can be inferred from the characters' names: 'R' for Romeo, 'Julia' for Juliet, 'Perry' for Paris, 'M' for Mercutio, and 'Nora' for Juliet's nurse (Nora's character in the film is a nurse).
- The actors playing zombies did not blink. This proved difficult for some, especially Nicholas Hoult, who was involved in several fairly long scenes. The zombies began blinking again later, as their humanity started to return according to the plot.
- Originally, Nora was intended to be Black and half-Ethiopian, but it was decided instead to cast a white actress (Analeigh Tipton).
- In preparation for filming, the actors and extras involved in the film attended a "zombie boot camp" (similar to army basic training), where they learned how to walk and move like the living dead.
