'Game Of Thrones' Season 5 Starlet Natalie Dormer & 'Doctor Who' Actor Matt Smith Cast In 'Patient Zero' Zombie Movie

Natalie Dormer is sure to win over plenty of fans this month with the release of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 and Matt Smith will be in the same boat when Terminator: Genisys hits theaters next year. That said, we think that pairing these two rising stars for the new zombie movie Patient Zero is a great idea! The Game of Thrones beauty and the Doctor Who star have been cast in the upcoming film from director Stefan Ruzowitzky.

According to Deadline, the movie centers on a global pandemic of rabies that results in a new species "driven by violence." It's not exactly a zombie movie, but it's definitely easier to think of it that way. Apparently, there is one person that is somehow immune to the rabies outbreak, has to search for a cure. According to IGN, this character (portrayed by Smith, the newest cast member as of this week) can communicate with the "infected" and is hoping to save his wife and the rest of the world. We can assume Dormer will portray the wife, but that has not been confirmed.

This isn't the only zombie-related film for Smith in the works. He's also set to star in Pride and Prejudice and Zombies! Adding this new film to Smith's growing filmography is probably very exciting for fans of the former Time-Lord. This means more chances to see the young star on the big screen!

Besides Hunger Games, Dormer is set to appear in the upcoming 5^th season of Game of Thrones and has signed on through the possible 7^th season of the HBO show.
