In April 2015, it was publicly announced that Warner Bros. (then DreamWorks Animation) were making a film based off of the beloved game series Plants Vs. Zombies.[1]
Plot[]
According to Rich Werner the plot is "a human ate some contaminated hot dogs while visiting the carnival with his family, then, he became a zombie and began to infect everyone". Because of this portion being revealed, it is not known if Crazy Dave was going to be important to the main story.
Development[]
In April 2015, a Plants vs. Zombies animated film was reported to be in development at Warner Bros., with Roy Lee attached as a producer through his production company, Vertigo Entertainment.[2]
Then in April 2022, Werner revealed that a Plants vs. Zombies animated feature film was previously pitched to DreamWorks Animation, with "a full script reading and a room full of concept art" by Peter Zaslav, with Werner listing out what the intended plot of the film had been in an interview that May.[3][4]

Results[]
