Teresa Palmer Really, Really Loves ‘Warm Bodies’

Teresa-Palmer-Warm-Body

Sexy up-and-comer Teresa Palmer is just about ready to finalize a deal to star in Summit Entertainment’s big screen adaptation of author Isaac Marion’s debut novel “Warm Bodies.” The 25-year-old Aussie stunner is in talks to play Julie, the unexpected love interest of a zombie named R (Nicholas Hoult).

Palmer tells the LA Times:

It’s a sweet zombie movie. There’s a lot of heart in the story. It’s not your typical zombie film, even though it’s set in that post-apocalyptic era. It’s a real love story. It’s a drama. The heart of the story is this strange love story between these two people: one’s a human and one’s a zombie battling with his nature. I really liked the script. It was different from things I’d read before.

It’s in negotiations at the moment. I am so excited about that. I love Nicholas Hoult. I think he’s a super talent. The Wackness is one of my favorite movies. And Jonathan Levine is directing. If all goes to plan, I’ll be shooting that in the fall.

Palmer has starred in a number of high-profile projects including the Steven Spielberg/Michael Bay produced sci-fi actioner I Am Number Four, Disney’s The Sorcerer’s Apprentice, and Ghost House’s The Grudge 2.

None of those films were all that good, however, so you may want to check Palmer out in the 2008 erotic thriller Restraint—for which she went nude—and in 2005’s insanely gruesome Wolf Creek.
