Marvel Zombies live action coming to MCU?

- By Shyama Krishna Kumar Pages Editor

Zombies never stay dead, says comic book extraordin­aire Mark Millar. And if his informatio­n is to be believed, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is about to get zombified.

In his most recent newsletter, Millar discussed the latest episode of Marvel Disney+ series What If ...?, in which Hank Pym rescues Janet Van Dyne from the Quantum Realm, only to find out that’s he’s harbouring a virus that leads to a zombie outbreak, infecting the Avengers.

Millar broke down how he and co-creator Greg Land wrote and developed ‘Marvel Zombies’ for their run on ‘Ultimate Fantastic Four’, and how it’s very likely that the ‘What if ...?’ episode could translate into a live-action film in the future.

“[The comics] also spawned zombie cover months, toys and statues, endless Marvel Zombie cosplayers and now not only this What If ...? episode, but also (if my sources are correct) a little live-action ‘Marvel Zombies’ further down the line, but you never heard that from me,” wrote Millar in his newsletter.
