Pride and Prejudice and Zombies has had a release date set of February 19, 2016.

The film, which is based on the 2009 parody novel by Seth Grahame-Smith, will see Jane Austen's classic reimagined as a horror story.



As the Bennet sisters deal with society's pressure to marry, they must also contend with hordes of zombies rampaging across the English countryside.

The film stars Cinderella's Lily James as Elizabeth Bennet, Maleficent's Sam Riley as Mr Darcy and Doctor Who's Matt Smith as Mr Collins.

Elizabeth's sisters will be played by Bella Heathcote (Jane), Ellie Bamber (Lydia), Millie Brady (Mary) and Suki Waterhouse (Kitty).

Burr Steers directs from a screenplay he co-wrote with David O Russell, while the film is produced by Brian Oliver, Allison Shearmur, Sean McKittrick, Natalie Portman, Annette Savitch, Tyler Thompson and Marc Butan.
