Last year it was reported that the long-in-development Zombieland sequel had secured the entire main cast from the original film, with Emma Stone, Woody Harrelson, Jesse Eisenberg, and Abigail Breslin all set to reprise their roles.

Now it's been confirmed that yet another exciting cast member will be joining the Sony Pictures movie, Deadline reports that Rosario Dawson will co-star in Zombieland 2 alongside the original cast. Details regarding Dawson's role as Nevada in the film are currently being kept under wraps though we know she will be playing the role of a zombie killer.

The official Twitter account for the film released a poster for the upcoming sequel and it features the four main cast members in almost the exact same poses they had on the poster for the 2009 original. Not only that, but the poster has revealed the title for the film: Zombieland: Double Tap.
