Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End on Prime Video: Full list of cast

Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End gets a Halloween premiere on streaming as it drops on Prime Video on October 31, 2024. It's an action survival adventure film that promises gripping action, tension, and both physical and emotional survival in a world ravaged by a rabid infection.

Per the official logline, Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End follows a man named Manel, played by Francisco Ortiz, and his cat as they take refuge at home to survive a rabies-like pandemic. However, they soon have to come out of isolation to find food and safer places to live to truly survive and face all kinds of dangers along the way.

Carles Torrens, whose credit includes Pet and Apartment 143, directs the film with a screenplay that Angel Agudo wrote based on Manel Loureiro's best-seller of the same name. Narcos: Mexico's Jose Maria Yazpik, Iria del Rio, Berta Vazquez and others join Ortiz in the cast list.
