Am i the only one that thinks this?


This would seem to be a spoof working title of the film World War Z surely?

I totally agree with you. It's so obvious. It has to be the WWZ project. I just hope they do it justice.

It's based off of Grann's book about a lost civilization that the Amazon jungle has consumed. Pitt's character is the famous explorer that advanced the theory of the civilization through his explorations. Britain and much of the rest of the world were transfixed by his previous explorations, but his last one, which was in search of Z, he never returned from..

It is from a really interesting book about what was considered to be the last of the old time explorers=Col. Percy Fawcett, who, if you read about him will find a very complex, interesting and dynamic man. His dissapearance in the jungles of the Amazon in 1925, has sparked countless searches for what became of him-he was no novice to the region, having mapped many areas of the previously uncharted Amazonia, by the outside world. Not sure how Pitt will handle the role-physically he sort of fits the bill-except he is not British-but Fawcett, was a Brit molded of the Victorian-Edwardian era, so it will be interesting.
