Zack Snyder's Army of the Dead was only released three months ago, but its prequel Army of Thieves is already on its way.
Now, following our first look at the upcoming movie, Snyder has confirmed when Army of Thieves will drop on Netflix, giving us plenty of time to cancel our plans for yet another heist.
Announcing the news on Twitter – along with a glimpse of Ludwig Dieter tinkering with a safe – Snyder revealed that Army of Thieves will be available to stream globally from Friday, October 29.

Starring Army of the Dead's Matthias Schweighöfer and the likes of Game of Thrones' Nathalie Emmanuel, Guz Khan and Stuart Martin, Army of Thieves is set before the events of Snyder's zombie heist epic.
Billed as "a romantic-comedy slash heist movie", Army of Thieves follows a mysterious woman who recruits bank teller Dieter to assist her in "a heist of impossible-to-crack safes across Europe".
And that's not all we can expect to see from the new team-up of Snyder and Netflix, as the filmmaker recently signed a two-year first-look movie deal with the streaming service under his production banner The Stone Quarry.
"My goal and hope are to bring as much quality content as I can and do it on a giant scale," the Justice League director said of the deal. "Big projects and big movies."
