Get ready for a zombie romance. In a post-apocalyptic world, Nicholas Hoult (Beast from 'X-Men: First Class') plays a undead flesh eater known only as R; after he eats the brain of a suicidal teen, he gains all the victim's memories -- including the boy's love for his girlfriend Julie. R defies all his monstrous instincts to rescue from Julie from a grim fate and get her to one of the last vestiges of humanity, before she is devoured by a zombie wave. We've been fans of Hoult ever since he charmed as a little kid in 'About a Boy,' and we can't wait to see how the totally-unique story is handled by director Jonathan Levine ('50/50').
