Dave Bautista leads a group of mercenaries on a heist in zombie-filled Las Vegas in the film 'Army of the Dead.'
Netflix's list of new movies and shows available in May includes the zombie apocalypse thriller "Army of the Dead," an original movie for the streaming service.
The film follows a crew of mercenaries as they venture into a zombie-filled quarantine zone in Las Vegas to steal $200 million trapped beneath a Sin City casino.
The movie was filmed inside two shuttered Atlantic City casinos, the Showboat Hotel and Atlantic Club Casino Hotel, serving as backdrop for some interior scenes.
Most of "Army of the Dead" was shot in 2019. Other film locations included Las Vegas, California and New Mexico.
"Army of the Dead" brings together a pair of notable names from arguably the two biggest superhero and comic book film series of the last decade: lead actor Dave Bautista and director Zack Snyder.
Bautista has played Drax the Destroyer in four Marvel Cinematic Universe films, and Snyder, who also produced and wrote "Army of the Dead" is best known for his work with the DC Extended Universe films.
"Army of the Dead" debuts May 21 on Netflix.
Other notable movies and shows coming to Netflix in May include a crime documentary series about the Son of Sam killer, a thriller film titled "The Woman in the Window," starring Amy Adams, and the first season of superhero series "Jupiter's Legacy."
Among the titles leaving Netflix in May are Will Smith's "I Am Legend," "Batman Begins" and "The Dark Knight."
