‘Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead’ Teaser Out

Akira Tendo hates going to work and is living his life like the walking dead. However, when a real zombie apocalypse spreads through Japan, Tendo sees it as a chance to finally do the things he wants, since he doesn’t have to go to the office anymore!

Netflix has unveiled the teaser for “Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead,” the live-action adaptation of the Japanese manga series by Haro Aso and Kotaro Takata. Eiji Akaso, known for his roles in “Kamen Rider” and “Cherry Magic,” portrays Akira Tendo in this offbeat zombie-comedy. He appears hilariously entertaining in the short teaser as the elated office worker who creates a list of things he wants to do before becoming a zombie—an eventuality he has already come to terms with. Instead of adopting a dark survival mode, Akira embarks on a journey to do fun things before a zombie bites his head off.

The live-action adaptation looks promising and will be available to stream on Netflix on August 3.
