Cinema has a new trio that no one knew they needed as THR reports Chuck Norris, Vanilla Ice, and Sophie Monk have boarded a new independent action-comedy called Zombie Plane.
Zombie Plane follows a secret government organization that recruits celebrities to be undercover agents, who together must save humanity from an imminent zombie attack.
Norris, Ice, and Monk will play themselves, but Norris will play a slightly heightened version of himself called Commander Chuck Norris, who mentored and trained Ice to become a deadly secret agent.
“Audiences can expect a wild ride,” said producer and Radioactive managing director Jessica Butland. “Vanilla Ice is in his element as secret agent, and Chuck Norris having trained him, is excellent, and it just works.”
Executive producer and Entertainment Squad founder Shaked Berenson adds: “Zombie Plane uses comedy, the zombie genre, and ’90s nostalgia as a vehicle to comment on pop culture as much as it feeds it, creating unforgettable one-liners and situational comedy ‘to the extreme.'”
The film is directed by Lav Bodnaruk and Michael Pier of Chop Shop Post (a post-production house) and was shot earlier this year in Australia.
