Burr Steers' film adaptation of Seth Grahame-Smith's book PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES is a spin on Jane Austen's classic romance novel.

James (as Elizabeth) and Riley (who stars as Mr. Darcy) are joined by Bella Heathcoate, Jack Huston, Douglas Booth, Suki Waterhouse and Matt Smith, Charles Dance and Lena Headey in the cast.

In the book, "Liz Bennett (James), is pressured by her family to marry into a wealthy upper-class home and chafes at the stiff societal ways of 1800s England. Instead, she feels that she should help defend the countryside against the onslaught of a horrifying zombie plague."
