Dave Bautista Reportedly Returning For Army Of The Dead 2 Like any self-respecting zombie movie, Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead boasts a sprawling and eclectic ensemble cast that numbers into double figures, only for the mismatched crew of thieves and mercenaries to see their numbers slowly whittled down as they execute a daring heist on a Las Vegas casino after the entire city has been walled in and quarantined due to a zombie infestation. Dave Bautista, Ella Purnell, Omari Hardwick, Theo Rossi, Ana de la Reguera, Matthias Schweighöfer, Nora Amezeder, Garrett Dillahunt, Tig Notaro, Raúl Castillo and Samantha Win all go in, but technically only one of them makes it out. Bautista’s Scott Ward, Purnell’s Kate Ward and Notaro’s sarcastic pilot Marianne Peters initially escape, but a nuclear explosion causes a helicopter crash just as they’ve completed their mission.
