Matt Smithâs a busy guy right now. Not only did Terminator Genisys just hit theaters, but he also had two films in Hall H during San Diego Comic-Con this year, Patient Zero and Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. We actually touched on all three and Doctor Who during my my one-on-one interview, but the focus was PPZ. The film is based on the Seth Grahame-Smith novel of the same name which puts a unique spin on the Jane Austen classic, Pride and Prejudice. Itâs the same characters, period and location, but in Grahame-Smithâs version, the English countryside is in the middle of a zombie outbreak and the Bennet sisters are skilled zombie slayers. Smithâs Mr. Collins, on the other hand, would rather flaunt his wealth and connections rather than get his hands dirty.
During our interview, we discussed how Smithâs version of Collins differs from what we get in the book, how Collins is the main source of comedic relief in the film, whether or not Smith shot any material for Terminator Genisys that didnât make it into the final cut of the film, Smithâs thoughts on Peter Capaldiâs work in Doctor Who and loads more. You can check it all out in the video interview below and, in case you missed it, click here to see the full version of the PPZ edition of âWould You Ratherâ with Smith, Lily James and Jack Huston. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies hits theaters on February 5th, 2016.
