Army of Thieves Isn’t Like Army of the Dead: Everything You Need to Know

Army of the Dead fans are in for another treat as Netflix is going to release
Army of Thieves, a prequel movie to the popular series. But, unlike its
predecessor, the movie isn’t grim and bloody. Army of Thieves is a fun thriller
romance that is awaiting its release on Netflix
[https://netflixjunkie.com/category/news/]on October 29, 2021.

The Netflix [https://www.netflix.com/] Original film is primarily based around
Ludwig Deiter, the world’s best safecracker, in the zombie apocalypse series.
Fans will have an opportunity to learn more about the character, how he got
involved in a life of crime, and why he was so willing to run into perilous
situations to crack the fabled Gotterdammerung safe.


WHAT GAVE RISE TO THE IDEA OF ‘ARMY OF THIEVES’?

After seeing his captivating performance in Army of the Dead, the creator,
director, and producer of the Netflix Original
[https://netflixjunkie.com/category/originals/], Zack Snyder came up with the
concept of a follow-up film surrounding Deiter, played by Matthias Schweighöfer.

Snyder’s wife and primary producer of Army of the Dead, Deborah Snyder was
particularly interested in the project due to an oddity – the two films belong
to completely different genres. Army of the Dead was a zombie apocalypse
thriller while Army of Thieves is a romantic heist.

Army of Thieves has Ludwig Deiter as the protagonist in a reprising role from
Army of the Dead [https://www.netflix.com/title/81046394]. The film is based six
years before the events of Army of the Dead, during the beginnings of the zombie
breakout.

Matthias Schweighöfer not only plays the eccentric character on-screen but is
also the one behind the camera lens – directing the movie. The German actor,
director, and producer has directed several movies he has starred in. Likewise,
he jumped at the opportunity to return to the role in this film, shot in the
Czech Republic in 2020.


MORE ABOUT OTHER STARS

Matthias Schweighöfer isn’t the only experienced artist working on the film
[https://www.netflix.com/title/81185548]. Army of Thieves also stars Nathalie
Emmanuel as Gwendoline. The actress is best known for her supporting roles in
Game of Thrones and the Maze Runner.



The cast further includes Guz Khan, Ruby O. Fee, Stuart Martin, Jonathan Cohen,
Peter Simonischek, Noemie Nakai, and John Bubniak in supporting roles.
