Following the success of Zack Snyder’s “Army of the Dead,” fans of the genre-blending zombie heist thriller are on the edge of their seats, eagerly anticipating the release of “Army of the Dead 2.” The original film, released on Netflix, was met with acclaim for its unique take on the zombie apocalypse and its combination of intense action, heist elements, and a touch of the supernatural.
As the anticipation for the sequel grows, let’s explore what we know about “Army of the Dead 2” and any hints regarding its release date.
When Will Army of the Dead 2 Be Released?
We don’t know when Army of the Dead 2 will come out yet as of this writing, but that’s only because Zack Snyder is busy with Rebel Moon at the moment.
We should hear more about Army of the Dead 2 soon since the release date for Rebel Moon is coming up soon. If Rebel Moon does as well as we think it will, Netflix will probably ask for the horror movie sequel right away.

Based on typical production schedules, we think that Army of the Dead will come out in 2025, but the best-case situation is that it will come out in the late months of 2024.
Who Will Be in the Cast of Army of the Dead 2?
Many of the stars who played parts in the first movie didn’t make it to the second one, since most of the characters from the first movie died. Here is the list of expected cast members for season 2:
- Omari Hardwick as Vanderohe
- Ella Purnell as Kate Ward
- Matthias Schweighöfer as Ludwig Dieter
- Nathalie Emmanuel as Gwendoline
- Huma Qureshi as Geeta
What Will Happen in Army of the Dead 2?
In the last scene of Army of the Dead, Vanderohe, played by Omari Hardwick, buys a private jet with the money from Bly Tanaka’s safe. For a moment, it looks like his story might have a happy ending.
He quickly becomes dizzy and runs to the bathroom, where he discovers that a zombie bit him and that the infection is starting to spread.
Even though the movie ends before we see him fully change, Vanderohe probably won’t make it through his injury because of the rules that Army of the Dead has set.
But that doesn’t always mean the end of the character’s story. Since Vanderohe was bitten by the first Alpha zombie, who is now dead, he is likely to turn into an Alpha himself. An Alpha is a zombie with much higher intelligence and speed than a normal “shambler.”
As a result, he could easily become the next zombie king when he loses control. This means that in a possible sequel, Kate Ward might have to fight one of her father’s old friends.
“Even preemptively before he yelled action on day one of this movie, Zack and I talked about the big picture and playing Vanderohe from that space and the possibilities as to where this guy could go,” Omari Hardwick shared with the media.

He also said, “There you go. I’m ready.” My goal is to stay in shape so that if I’m asked to return to the world of zombies, even if it’s as a zombie, I’ll be ready to play and add to the story again.
