Brad Pitt’s “World War Z” thriller TV spot released

Paramount Pictures has unveiled a new TV spot for director Marc Forster’s zombie apocalypse thriller World War Z, and it’s chock-full of the living dead, Collider said.

The film is based on Max Brooks’ novel of the same name and stars Brad Pitt as a United Nations employee “who traverses the world in a race against time to stop the Zombie pandemic that is toppling armies and governments and threatening to decimate humanity itself.” This spot highlights flashes of big action, zombie hoardes, and Brad Pitt, which sounds like a swell combination when marketing to an audience as large as the Super Bowl’s.

Hit the jump to watch the new spot, and check back here on Collider Sunday night for a round-up of the commercials and movie ads that played during the game. World War Z opens on June 21st.
