Twilight of the Dead looks as if it will be coming to life.

According to THR, George A. Romero’s final zombie movie is being prepared by his widow Suzanne.  Romero had been working on the script with Paolo Zelati, and with Suzanne’s permission, he continued work on it with Joe Knetter and Robert L. Lucas. It would be a sequel to Land of the Dead.

“I gave him my full blessing as long as I could be there every step of the way for it to remain true to George’s vision,” Suzanne Romero told THR. “We had a solid treatment and the beginning of the script. I can 100 percent say that George would be incredibly happy to see this continue. He wanted this to be his final stamp on the zombie genre.”

According to Zelati, “Twilight of the Dead was his goodbye to the genre he created and wanted to go out with a powerful film.”

“This is the film he wanted to make. And while someone else will carry the torch as the director, it is very much a George A. Romero film,” Suzanne Romero adds.
