Mads Mikkelsen Really Wants To Kill Zombies 

When it comes to cool geek stuff, Mads Mikkelsen has a stellar resume. He’s been an iconic serial killer, a James Bond villain and played in the Marvel Universe — and soon, he’ll build the freaking Death Star. But there’s one genre he still really wants to get into.

“Zombies,” the actor recently said. “I love zombies.”

Mikkelsen, who plays Galen Erso in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, was doing press for the film this weekend when a reporter from Birth Movies Death asked what genre he hasn’t worked in that he’d like to. And his answer was zombies.

I do love watching Walking Dead. I do. There’s something so fascinating, where when the zombies are moving sufficiently slowly, you actually want to live in that world, you know? Because you can just fucking chop the shit out of them!

But you should always be aware! Don’t get too close up! Because that’s when (Mads mimes biting someone’s neck as a zombie) that’s when they come.

He also revealed he’s more of a fast zombie guy than a slow one.

“They are quite fascinating, the fast ones,” Mikkelsen said. “Like World War Z. But it’s also too scary, man (laughs). That’s too fast for me. I wouldn’t stand a chance.”

We think Mads would be a damn fine zombie hunter. Hollywood, get on that.
