Will 2nd part come?
This question has been very tricky as the answer is a roller coaster of various points and situations. The first announcement of Part 2 was made in 2017. The original director J.A Bayona quitted the film which delayed the shooting.
Later, David Fincher comes to the scene and promises to complete the movie with Brad Pit as the lead star. After a few months, David disclosed that while the script is in his hands but the story is yet to be fully framed. This created doubts regarding the movie release in the minds of fans and viewers.
During all this, Brad began to make his new movie in with Quentin Tarantino, delaying the shooting of World War Z 2 even more. In late 2018, David committed to making the season 2 of his Netflix show Mindhunter and postponed the making of World War Z 2. Once again the shooting was postponed as Paramount draw up from the post-production of the sequel.
