Netflix released the trailer for the live-action adaptation of Haro Aso’s manga ‘Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead’. The film will stream exclusively on Netflix starting on August 3rd.

Synopsis: Akira Tendo (Eiji Akaso) works at an exploitative company where he suffers endless hours and harassment from his boss. Spending more days feeling dead than alive, he awakes to discover his town has been devastated and overtaken by zombies and suddenly feels excited at the prospect of not needing to go to the office anymore. After witnessing an older co-worker he looked up to become a zombie, he comes to the realization that he’d rather be eaten by zombies if he can’t do what he wants. Akira comes up with a bucket list of 100 things he wants to do before becoming a zombie. He crosses these items off the list as he experiences stay-at-home camping, paragliding, SUP yoga and other long-held dreams. What will become of him as he joyfully lives his life amid a zombie apocalypse?! And, as he holds on to his dream to become a superhero who saves everyone, what will happen when he battles a massive and deadly zombie shark!?

‘Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead’ stars Eiji Akaso, Mai Shiraishi, and Shuntaro Yanagi.
