Now it wouldn’t be a Zombies movie without Seabrook’s star-crossed zombie/cheerleader couple Milo Manheim and Meg Donnelly as Zed and Addison would it?! And we have some great news for you, they’re both back for the third movie!

However, unfortunately for us Zombie fans, it's been confirmed that Zombies 3 will be the final movie of the series. Cue the tears.
