After her viral turn in Snyder’s zombie flick, Tig Notaro reveals the cheeky idea she pitched to the director—one that’s sure to get people talking.

When it comes to stirring up conversation, Zack Snyder’s films have never shied away from splitting the crowd. But what would happen if the director took on a project that’s all about, in the words of one of his stars, “hot lesbian action”? Comedian Tig Notaro, who made waves with her role in Army of the Dead, reckons it’d be a wild ride—and she’s already floated the idea to Snyder himself.

Notaro’s Unexpected Rise to Internet Fame

After Army of the Dead hit screens, Notaro found herself at the centre of a social media storm. Punters online couldn’t stop talking about her, with many calling her “hot” in the film. It was a bit of a surprise for Notaro, who’s more used to stand-up gigs than action-packed blockbusters. The buzz was so strong, she decided to have a bit of fun with it.

Notaro, never one to miss a good opportunity for a laugh, decided to take the mickey out of her newfound status. She thought, why not pitch something completely out there to Snyder? After all, if the internet’s already obsessed, why not give them more of what they want?

The Cheeky Pitch to Snyder

So, Notaro went straight to the source. She pitched the idea of a film focused entirely on “hot lesbian action” to Snyder.

According to Army of the Dead star, Tig Notaro, it’s going to be a blast and Snyder was fully on board with her pitch.

It’s not every day you see a comedian take such a bold approach with a director known for his big-budget, high-octane films.

Notaro’s pitch wasn’t just a throwaway joke. She genuinely seemed keen to see how Snyder would react—and, by all accounts, he was up for it. Whether or not the project ever gets off the ground, it’s clear Notaro knows how to keep things interesting both on and off the screen.

Fans React to the Unconventional Idea

The idea of a film built around “hot lesbian action” is sure to get people talking, especially with Notaro at the helm. Fans of both the comedian and Snyder are already speculating about what such a project could look like. Some reckon it’d be a breath of fresh air, while others are just amused by Notaro’s audacity.

For now, it’s all just a bit of fun, but Notaro’s willingness to poke fun at herself—and the industry—shows why she’s become such a standout figure. Whether or not the film ever sees the light of day, her pitch has already made waves among fans and film buffs alike.
