Last Updated on August 5, 2021

The DAY OF THE DEAD is well underway, shockingly, and one more has been added to its undead ranks. Aussie newcomer Marcus Vanco will join the cast as Baca Salazar, a soldier and survivor. He has few credits to his name, though he has appeared as a major character in the fantasy series The Shannara Chronicles and taken a role in Angelina Jolie's UNBROKEN.

This new version of DAY OF THE DEAD is a post-apocalyptic tale that

follows a former medical student tormented by a dark figure from her past, who happens to be a half-human, half-zombie hell-bent on destroying her.

Also in the cast are Jonathan Schaech, Sophie Skelton, Lorina Kamburova, Nick Loeb, Rachel O’Meara, Debbie Sherman, Luke Cousins, Nathan Cooper, and Cristina Serafini. The remake is being directed by Hèctor Hernández Vicens.
