Get ready zombie flick fans! Zack Snyder is set to direct 'Army of the Dead', an epic-scale project that's sure to have undead fans feeling giddy with glee.

Snyder directed 2004's 'Dawn of the Dead', and most recently the box office smash '300'.

Army is reportedly set in a not-too-distant future where the city of Las Vegas has been quarantined. The action revolves around a father who tries to save his daughter from the zombies.

Snyder and Warners have already hired screenwriter Joby Harold (Awake) to write the script.

The film may be shot, as 300 hundred was, entirely against green screen with visuals added later. Snyder told Daily Variety that Army of the Dead will have a sweeping, epic quality. "I feel like there hasn't been a zombie movie on the scale that we want to do it," he said.

I loves me some zombies! I can't wait.
