ArmyofThieves star Nathalie Emmanuel opens up about her potential franchise return. 'I’ve heard whispers about future things, but I couldn’t tell you anything concrete about what is going to happen...'
As Zack Snyder's latest film series continues to grow, Army of Thieves star Nathalie Emmanuel teases her potential franchise return. The 2021 heist comedy served as a prequel to Snyder's Army of the Dead and centered on Matthias Schweighöfer's Dieter in the early days of the zombie outbreak in Nevada who has dreams of becoming renowned for his safecracking skills.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Alongside Emmanuel and Schweighöfer, who also directed the Army of the Dead prequel, the cast for Army of Thieves included Ruby O. Fee, Stuart Martin, Guz Khan and Johnathan Cohehn. Snyder drafted the story concept for the film with Shay Hatten, who co-wrote Army of the Dead with Snyder and Obi-Wan Kenobi's Joby Harold, penning the script for the heist comedy.
I don’t know anything about the future of those characters. I mean, I’ve heard whispers about future things, but I couldn’t tell you anything concrete about what is going to happen, if anything is going to happen. But I completely agree that it would be really fun for those two to reunite. The journey of their story was just really fun, especially from Gwen’s point of view. She goes from being highly irritated by this man to sort of falling in love with him.
The door for Emmanuel's return to the Army of the Dead franchise is very wide open, as Army of Thieves ended with Gwendoline sacrificing herself to be arrested to allow Dieter to escape, with the promise she would find him once she was free. With Snyder and Netflix eager to expand the zombie-based universe, the timeline for the movies has been kept mostly vague, with Army of Thieves seemingly taking place roughly five years before the original movie.
Despite the chances of his survival being low, audiences have continued to debate Dieter's potential survival at the end of Army of the Dead. Snyder himself has hinted that Dieter not only survived his near-death experience, but that his encounter with Zeus would inspire him to reunite with a "jailed Gwendoline" for the in-development Army of the Dead 2, seemingly in line with Emmanuel's tease of hearing "whispers of future things.
