Portman & Zombies?

For whatever reason, combining Jane Austen with diametrically opposed genres is officially a thing. A few days ago, we told you about Seth Grahame-Smith's novel PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES coming to the big screen and earlier today, we told you about PRIDE AND PREDATOR making its way to theaters. While not much is known about the latter, "Production Weekly" is saying that petite brunette fox Natalie Portman may be enjoying tea and crumpets while evading bloodthirsty zombies in the former. And if it is indeed true, it seems Portman has developed a soft spot for horror flicks since she vowed to never star in one way back when. But really, how could she not want to be wooed by Mr. Darcy while taking out undead bloodsuckers?

Extra Tidbit: Portman was considered for the title role in BECOMING JANE but she didn't do it probably because it didn't have zombies.
