In what appears to be some late casting, Morse will play reportedly play a prisoner, who makes it through the war, and is hiding out in a prison to stay alive.  The fifty-eight year old joins star Brad Pitt, Matthew Fox, James Badge Dale, and Mireille Enos, who are all on board the zombie apocalypse action that has been filming since August.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re not up to par on World War Z, it&#8217;s adaption comes from the novel of writer Max Brooks and follows Pitt in the role of a UN employee who gets caught up in a worldwide pandemic while writing a report and interviewing the survivors.  The screenplay was written with the help of Brooks and Thor writer J. Michael Straczynski.  A seasoned performer, David Morse should easily bring appeal to the 2012 release. Morse comes with credits dating back to the early eighties.  He has appeared in The Green Mile, St. Elsewhere, The American Experience, the TV series House, John Adams, Disturbia, and The Hurt Locker.<\/p>\n<p>World War Z is slated to open in theaters next year on December 21,2012.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/David_Morse.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/David_Morse.jpg\" alt=\"David Morse\" title=\"David Morse\" width=\"371\" height=\"425\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-70548\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/David_Morse.jpg 371w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/David_Morse-261x300.jpg 261w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 371px) 100vw, 371px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Treme actor David Morse, who just appeared in Drive Angry 3D, and the short lived FX series Lights Out, has joined Director Mark Forster&#8217;s World War Z.
