Matt Smith has been recently added to the starcast of upcoming movie 'Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.'

According to the Hollywood Reporter, the adaptation of the Seth Grahame-Smith novel also includes Lily James, Sam Riley, Jack Huston, Bella Heathcote and Douglas Booth.

The movie directed by Burr Steers is a horror-comedy spin on Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and would depict the story of Liz Bennett played by James, who is pressured by her family to marry into a wealthy upper-class home but chafes at the stiff social mores of Victorian England. Instead, she feels that she should help defend the countryside against the onslaught of a horrifying zombie plague.

 

The 'Doctor Who' actor would play Mr. Collins, a parson who was on the lookout for a wife and proposes to Bennett.
