Brad Pitts Battle to Make World War Z Inside the Drama, Re writes, and Reshoots. The streets were slick with rain on April 1. Damon Lindelof climbed the winding road to Brad Pitts hillside estate, overlooking Los Angeles. The 4. 0 year old Lindelof, a screenwriter and a creator of the hit show Lost, had been summoned by his agent to meet Pitt to talk about World War Zhe stars film based on the 2. Max Brooks novelwhose release later that year would be delayed. For months, Hollywood gossips had whispered about Pitts troubled zombie thriller. Key executives were fired. The movie was over budget. There were rumors that Pitt, who both produced and starred in the film, had stopped speaking to the director, Marc Forster. Lindelof told his agent when he called, I should see something, read a script. No, they just want to meet you cold, the agent replied. They referred to Pitt and his colleagues from Plan B Entertainment, the actors 1. A week earlier Pitts respected right hand, Dede Gardner, had called Lindelof to give him a heads up. The Walking Dead Full Season 2'>The Walking Dead Full Season 2. Dont be nervous or stressed out, she said of meeting her boss. The morning of the meeting Lindelof received an e mail asking what kind of coffee he wanted from Starbucks. Arriving at about two P. M., he was escorted to Pitts office, a sparsely furnished room with large windows, four chairs, and a table overlooking a parking area and swaying trees. There, Pitt and a grande soy latte were waiting. He took me through how excited he was when he read the book, what was exciting for him, the geopolitical aspect of it, Lindelof said, recounting the meeting over tea at Shutters on the Beach in Santa Monica on a sunny Tuesday in January. He said Pitt explained, But when we started working on the script, a lot of that stuff had to fall away for the story to come together. We started shooting the thing before we locked down how it was going to end up, and it didnt turn out the way we wanted it to. My sense of it was he was taking responsibility, Lindelof went on. Pitt asked him to watch a recent edit. The thing we really need right now is someone who is not burdened by all the history that this thing is inheriting, who can see what weve got and tell us how to get to where we need to get, the actor said. Two weeks later, Lindelof was seated in Screening Room 5 on the Paramount lot, where he watched a 7. World War Z. The ending was abrupt, an incoherent montage of footage smashed together. But there was something else about the movie gnawing at him when the lights came up. Where was the other 5. Its a Zombie MovieThis years crop of big budget blockbusters have seen more than their share of drama. Disneys The Lone Ranger was shuttered in pre production after the original budget soared to nearly 2. Johnny Depp and others to defer their fees.

Battleship But no movie has gotten more tongues wagging than World War Z, Brad Pitts first foray as the star and producer of his own potential franchise, which, one could argue, he has avoided in his career like a zombie plague. Since 2. 00. 6, when Paramount optioned the book for Plan B, four successive writers have been hired to overhaul the script, an experienced producer and an Oscar winning visual effects artist have left the project, and the filmmakers have shot and thrown out an expensive 1. Paramount admits to that amount, which means the real figure is probably highersources from rival studios say that the actual number is more like 2. Paramounts misfortune, gloat that the budget is closer to 2. Paramount denies both of these higher estimates. World War Z will hit theaters this month, six months later than expected. If Paramount and Pitt are lucky, the studio and its financial partners will earn back the movies costs plus more. If not, Paramount will go down as having made the most overpriced zombie movie in Hollywood history. Though the impetus to make World War Z reflects the economics of todays Hollywood, where studios rely on a predictable stream of franchises based on either well known characters or proven brands anchored by a movie star with international appeal, everyone involved in the movie had a different motivation for making it. Paramount has lost lucrative business partnerships with Dream. Works and its sibling, Dream. Works Animation, as well as Marvel Entertainmentalthough it retains distribution rights to four Marvel movies, the first two Iron Man movies, Captain America, and Thorwhich means the studio needs to create new franchises. The Walt Disney Company bought Marvel in 2. Marc Forster, whose artistic temperament seems best suited to contained emotional dramas like Stranger than Fiction and Finding Neverland, hopes to rebuild his action movie cred after being skewered by critics for the James Bond sequel Quantum of Solace. The Wall Street Journal called Quantum of Solace a model of mediocrity. Slate wrote that Forster had no feel for action sequences. Bearing the weight of their expectations is Pitt, who has undeniable global appeal despite an acting career comprising as many admirable misses as hits. Hes been nominated for four Academy Awards, but hes never won. More recent outings, including Killing Them Softly, The Tree of Life, and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, have failed to entice moviegoers in large numbers, who instead swoon whenever Pitt plays a masculine hero like Achilles in Troy or John Smith in Mr. Mrs. Smith, or delight in his devilish charm in ensemble films, such as the Oceans franchise and Inglourious Basterds. His career as a producer is less distinguished. Plan B is known mostly for producing small, moody dramas Killing Them Softly among them directed by eclectic filmmakers. At Paramount, Plan B had never attempted anything as big as World War Z. Dede Gardner, president of Plan B since 2. Paramount executive, defended Pitt and their company, saying, He produced Eat Pray Love with me, which was a pretty big movie. That said, creating a special effects driven action blockbuster with the scope and size of World War Z demands a different set of skills than those needed for an emotional travelogue starring Julia Roberts. Every movie is modified one way or another script revisions are common and studios are increasingly shooting additional footage after principal photography is done. And other movies with troubled pasts have gone on to reap big rewards. Apocalypse Now was supposed to be shot in a few months but dragged on for more than a year after its star, Martin Sheen, had a heart attack and the set was shut down due to a typhoon. That movie is considered a masterpiece of 1. Gone with the Wind was delayed for two years, subjected to numerous re writes, and shot by no fewer than three directors. Watch Deception Online Freeform on this page. It won eight Oscars. But those involved with World War Z acknowledge that its ambitions are less epic, more commercial. Its a zombie movie, said Ian Bryce, one of the producers. They go around and bite people. Still, no one, least of all Brad Pitt, can afford to let World War Z fail. Trial by Fire. Like all good dramas, World War Z started with a fight. In the summer of 2. Plan B and Appian Way, Leonardo Di. Caprios production company, were locked in a bidding war over the movie rights to Brookss book World War Z An Oral History of the Zombie War. Each had been sent a manuscript of the geopolitical thriller that documented a zombie apocalypse via a series of detailed first person accounts. It was atypical movie farefashioned after Studs Terkels Pulitzer Prize winning book, The Good Warand written as an allegory for how self interested countries would react to a global pandemic.
