Little Known Fact- Cicely Tyson was cast as 'Blind Al' for a blink of an eye. She met and loved Tim Miller and promptly signed on. But hadn’t yet read the script. Then she, uh… read the script.

Our journey to find a celebrity to cameo in Zombieland (whom we ultimately found in Bill Murray) next took us to Jean Claude Van Damme. Van Damme passed because he was working on Universal Soldier 2. We heard through a friend that it ended up being one of his greatest regrets.

See, we were nobodies back then. Zombies weren’t cool. Walking Dead was just a comic book. Our best guess is we were getting flat no's from agents based on the title page alone. Kevin subsequently treated & me to breakfast, and yes, no shit,

Our search for the 'Zombieland' celebrity cameo (before Bill Murray said yes) next led us to Joe Pesci... or rather to his agent. and told the agent to explain to Joe, 'It's a small part.' The agent said, 'There are no small parts... only small money.'

So a no-go on Swayze & . Our fearless leader called: ‘Fire up the @hamillhimself draft.’ We would not be deterred. #BillMurray hadn’t yet been mentioned, for we would have never in our wildest imagination thought we could get him.

As promised yesterday by , this is our version of what ultimately turned out to be Bill Murray's sequence in 'Zombieland.' We sent this to Mr. Stallone... but his schedule / better judgment thwarted our plans. Tomorrow, the @HamillHimself version...
