Not every post-apocalyptic story has to take place in an industrial wasteland, or feature a plucky female hero caught between two potential love interests… Well, okay, Z For Zachariah skips the former but does have the latter. The first trailer for the film is available over at Apple’s site.
In the story, which for many years was a staple of secondary school classrooms, Margot Robbie's playing Ann, a small-town girl who lives alone on a farm in a valley that boasts one of the few remaining pockets of safely breathable air following a catastrophic nuclear war.
Her seeming seclusion is rudely interrupted when she encounters Chiwetel Ejiofor’s Loomis, a scientist who has long been searching for just such a safe zone. Half-crazed from radiation exposure, he proves to be a valuable asset, bringing knowledge such as getting gasoline from defunct petrol station pumps. Soon, a connection builds between the two, seemingly to be played out in glorious isolation. Until, that is, Chris Pine’s handsome stranger Loomis turns up, bearing his own agenda and the chiseled good looks of the once and future Captain Kirk. From there, the drama builds… {Z For Zachariah Poster}
Compliance director Craig Zobel is behind this one, working from a script by Nissar Modi that was originally developed by Pall Grimsson and adapted from Robert C. O’Brien’s 1974 novel. Z For Zachariah will be out in the States on August 21, but there’s no word on a UK date yet.
