Mathilda to take on some zombies!

Somwhere around here I talked about the zombified version of the Jane Austen classic, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.

Well, Natalie Portman is set to star in the film adaptation, according to Variety:

Portman will star in and produce “Pride and Prejudice and Zombies,” a film that is based on the bestselling book written by Seth Grahame-Smith and Austen.

Crazy.

Sensible, actually

I can see Portman doing Austen, and I can see her doing a zombie movie, so really, why not combine the two?
