Zona Merah: Dead City Teaser Sets January 2027 Release

Screenplay Films released the first teaser for Zona Merah: Dead City on Friday. The film is scheduled to open in Indonesian cinemas on January 14, 2027, according to variety.com.

The teaser shifts the outbreak away from the countryside villages and quarantine sites of the series, moving the action into city streets, malls and an airport. Screenplay Films called the project the largest zombie production Indonesia has ever made.

Zona Merah: Dead City is a big-screen adaptation of the Indonesian zombie series Zona Merah, a Vidio original. Sidharta Tata returns to direct, alongside co-director Fajar Martha Santosa.

Returning cast members include Aghni Haque, Andri Mashadi, Devano, Maria Theodore and Lukman Sardi. New additions to the cast are Bryan Domani, Shindy Huang, Myesha Lin, Derby Romero and Luna Maya, who also serves as an executive producer. Barunson E&A is handling international sales for the film.

From Streaming to the Big Screen

The series Zona Merah has drawn more than 34 million views on Vidio, where it stayed mostly in villages and quarantine sites. The film adaptation expands that setting to urban locations when it reaches Indonesian cinemas in January 2027.
