Woody Harrelson has signed up to appear in Columbia Pictures' horror comedy Zombieland.

The movie, which is scripted by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, follows the story of a mismatched pair who find themselves in a world taken over by zombies.

Harrelson's zombie-fighting character is called Alburquerque.

The project is directed by Ruben Fleischer, while Gavin Polone's Parish Films will produce.
