Mike White Signs On For ‘Pride and Prejudice and Zombies’ Because Why Wouldn’t He

I call this picture "Mike Whitesnake"

Lionsgate offered Mike White the opportunity to direct Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and he has accepted. This doesn’t come as a huge surprise considering the feature film adaptation of the Jane Austen/living dead mash-up novel by Seth Grahame-Smith was one of the most sought after projects by some of Hollywood’s biggest helmers. So how did Mike White get it? Simple. The studio execs figured that someone who is as pale as Death but can walk around in direct sunlight must understand the zombie plight. Also, they liked that he’s funny. (Deadline)
