Actress Blake Lively has reportedly been offered the role of Elizabeth Bennet in "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies".

Contactmusic.com reports that the film is an adaptation of the book by Seth Graeme-Smith, who also wrote the screenplay, and tells the tale of a young woman looking for love at the same time as a zombie plague erupts in England.

David O. Russell was originally set to helm the project, but was later replaced by Craig Gillespie.
