The object of Elijah Wood’s twisted obsession in Franck Khalfoun’s MANAIC remake is getting into a different level of hot water with CBS’ killer animal series “Zoo,” reports Deadline. French actress Nora Arnezeder joins previously-cast James Wolk (“Mad Men”).
Based on James Patterson’s cautionary horror novel of the same name, ZOO has the following synopsis:
All over the world, brutal attacks are crippling entire cities. Jackson Oz, a young biologist, watches the escalating events with an increasing sense of dread. When he witnesses a coordinated lion ambush in Africa, the enormity of the violence to come becomes terrifyingly clear.
sponsored contentWith the help of ecologist Chloe Tousignant, Oz races to warn world leaders before it’s too late. The attacks are growing in ferocity, cunning, and planning, and soon there will be no place left for humans to hide.
Arnezeder will play Chloe Tousignant, the French ecologist who meets Oz while she is on an African safari.
Jeff Pinkner, Josh Appelbaum, Andre Nemec and Scott Rosenberg all wrote the “Zoo” pilot, while James Mangold, Cathy Konrad, James Patterson, Bill Robinson, Leopoldo Gout and Steve Bowen are on board as producers. “Zoo” is expected to air on CBS in the summer.
