GRADING THE TRADES
Bryan Cranston to Be Eaten by Zombies
The stars of AMC shows that aren't Walking Dead are getting their piece of the zombie action: Breaking Bad's Bryan Cranston is negotiating to join the already cast Mireille Enos (The Killing) and James Badge Dale (Rubicon) in Marc Forster's World War Z, the Brad Pitt-starring adaptation of Max Brooks' zombie-apocalypse novel. Not much is known yet about the role Cranston would play, except that it's "small but flashy." Translation: He will play zombie food. Grade: A [HR]
As if Batman didn't already have enough loathsome villains to deal with in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises, Ben Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh Steelers shot a scene for the movie on Saturday. Grade: C [Pittsburgh Post-Gazette]
