Work continues apace on the sequel to Zombieland, currently known as Zombieland: Double Tap. And as the cameras roll, the cast grows, with news that Luke Wilson is aboard.

Director Ruben Fleischer is back to marshal the madness, dreamt up by original writers Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick. The film finds our band of heroic zombie slayers dealing with new kinds of undead folk that have evolved since the original film and some new human survivors.

Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, Emma Stone and Abigail Breslin return as the leads, while Rosario Dawson, Thomas Middleditch, Avan Jogia and Zoey Deutch are confirmed as amongst the fellow human contingent. Wilson's role is, at this time, unknown. There have been reports that Bill Murray (who famously popped up in the original) and his old Ghostbusters buddy Dan Aykroyd will be cameoing, but we'll see if that actually happens when the movie arrives on 11 October.
