Matt Damon’s zombie obsession revealed

New York: Matt Damon begged director Steven Soderbergh and writer Scott Burns to include a zombie scene in his latest film, ‘Contagion’. “Every day, Matt would come to Steven and I and say, ‘Why don’t we put zombies in the movie?’ So one day we did,” Burns told the New York Post at the premiere of the well-reviewed movie about a fast-spreading lethal disease. He said they surprised Damon with an actor dressed as a zombie who attacked him on the set. Burns said he’s holding the video of the prank “under lock and key” but added, “It’ll make its way on the Internet, I’m sure ... Someday, that little piece of film will come out.” IANS
