Plot
Gerry Lane, an expert investigator of the United Nations, is forced to try to stop a ferocious viral infection that could mean the end of the world. The voracity of the epidemic and the speed with which the human race can be potentially destroyed throws Lane in a race against time (and against a legion of undead), traveling the world in search of answers on how to stop the infection. A vast mission has been entrusted to Lane: to save the lives of millions of strangers. Starring Brad Pitt and directed by Marc Forster, 'World War Z' adapts the homonym novel by Max Brooks.

Trivia
In the book, 'Patient Zero' was originally from China not South Korea as it was in the film.
Max Brooks publicly stated that he felt the film had very little in common with his book beyond the central storyline.
Damon Lindelof and Drew Goddard rewrote the screenplay in the middle of the production to create a whole new different third act.
