Zombieland is the film which will see two survivors of a zombie infestation become friends and find redemption through their life fighting the zombies.

Of course it's not totally out of the blue as he's picked up another rather unusual role, he's appearing in Roland Emmerich's disaster epic 2012.

Sure he's a big name star and it shouldn't be much of a surprise, but Woody Harrelson has been known for picking up the rather more unusual and less mainstream roles.

Zombieland is written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick and, according to Yahoo News, sees Harrelson play a zombie fighter who meets up with another survivor and together they find redemption in a world of zombies.
