Matt Smith, Jack Huston and Lily James choose between playing a superhero or villain, working with 20 angry PAs or one angry director, and more.

I’ve been working on a brand new game to add to the rotation and got the opportunity to give it a go last week at San Diego Comic-Con. Welcome to the very first edition of Collider’s movie-themed “Would You Rather!” The goal is to have some fun, but a top priority of the game is also to give a little insight into how a filmmaker likes to work, his or her on-set preferences, etc.

Shortly after the Pride and Prejudice and Zombies Hall H panel, I got the opportunity to sit down with Matt Smith who plays Mr. Collins and Jack Huston who plays Wickham. Lily James leads the adaptation of the Seth Grahame-Smith book as Elizabeth Bennet. She’s basically the same Elizabeth Bennet featured in the original Jane Austen novel except for the fact that she and her four sisters, Lydia (Ellie Bamber), Mary (Millie Brady), Jane (Bella Heathcote) and Kitty (Suki Waterhouse), are all living in a 19th century England that is overrun with zombies - or rather, the “sorry stricken” or “unmentionables.”

I’ll share the portion of my chat with Smith and Huston about the film later this week, but for now, here’s the video of them participating in our very first round of “Would You Rather,” which also includes an impromptu cameo by James. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is scheduled to hit theaters on February 5, 2016. The film also stars Lena Headey, Charles Dance, Douglas Booth and Sam Riley.
