Fight zombies in 'Call of Duty' with John Malkovich (yes, really)

Call of Duty‘s Zombies mode has been a staple of the franchise, in which the shooter franchise that attempts to ground players in realistic wartime combat scenarios lets loose and floods those war zones with hordes of the undead.

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare is no different, and this time around, Activision has brought in a number of recognizable actors to help stave off the zombie plague. One of them is John Malkovich.

In the new trailer for Advanced Warfare‘s upcoming downloadable content, Malkovich, Rose McGowan, Bill Paxton, and Jon Bernthal are all revealed to star in the game’s Exo Zombies mode.

The Exo Zombies add-on focuses on four employees—presumably the four big names attached to the content—of Atlas, the company run by Kevin Spacey’s character in Advanced Warfare. The first chapter of the mode will arrive along with a few multiplayer maps sometime in 2015. Additional chapters will be doled out with other content throughout the year.

Past Call of Duty zombie modes have included a number of recognizable names, like Michael Rooker, Sarah Michelle Gellar… and Richard Nixon.
