"Zombieland 2" will be set in a world in which zombie slayers must face off against many new kinds of zombies that have evolved since the first movie, as well as some new human survivors.


Original "Zombieland" filmmaker Ruben Fleischer, who has helmed "Venom" too, is returning to direct the follow-up. He is re-teaming with original writers Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese, known for their work on both "Deadpool" movies. 


The sequel began production in January and will be released this October, on the 10th anniversary of the first film.


Middleditch will next be seen in "Godzilla: King of the Monsters" and stars on "Silicon Valley", for which he received a 2016 Emmy nomination.
