Zoey Deutch, who played Madison in Zombieland: Double Tap, comments on whether she’d return for a possible Zombieland 3. Written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick and directed by Ruben Fleischer, 2009’s Zombieland followed Jesse Eisenberg’s geeky college student turned zombie killer, Columbus, across the post-apocalyptic United States, surviving thanks to his strict adherence to a set of rules and the help of three strangers. In addition to Eisenberg, the film starred Woody Harrelson as Tallahassee, Emma Stone as Wichita, and Abigail Breslin as Little Rock.
In Zombieland 2, Deutch played the stereotypical “dumb blonde (draped in pink)" who managed to survive the zombie outbreak by spending most of her time hiding in a store’s freezer. After altering the film’s dynamic in a big way, Madison and the rest of the group arrived in the hippie haven Babylon—where she elected to stay with Berkeley (Avan Jogia). Double Tap ended with Columbus, Tallahassee, Wichita, Little Rock, and Nevada (Rosario Dawson) driving off into the sunset, leaving the future open for yet another comedic, gory, and occasionally dramatic adventure.
