The 35-year-old actor Guz Khan, who portrays one of the leading characters in the newly released Zack Synder written Army of Thieves, in a recent interview with Screen Rant spoke about the idea of a spin-off of the Netflix film with its story centering on his character Rolph.
“It was very easy to play the character, and I think in terms of how it tracks across the movie, me and Stu were saying it's definitely ripe for a bit of Rolph and Brad action post-zombie world. I think that'd be a very fun combination, again, even to meet up with Nathalie and Ruby's characters to see how they would fare against zombies,” Guz Khan told Screen Rant.
Although the actor seems pretty interested in a spin-off movie, there is no confirmation by the filmmakers or the studio in any way that indicates that Guz Khan could very well receive his own feature film.
In addition to the British star Guz Khan in the role of Rolph, who before featuring in the blockbuster was mostly known among the mainstream media and audiences for his role in the television show Man Like Mobeen, he is joined by other superstars from Army of Thieves such as Matthias Schweighöfer in the role of Ludwig Diete, Nathalie Emmanuel in the role of Gwendoline, Guz Khan in the role of Rolph, Ruby O. Fee in the role of Korina, Stuart Martin in the role of Brad Cage, Jonathan Cohen in the role of Delacroix, Christian Steyer in the role of Hans Wagner, Barbara Meier in the role of Lucy, Noemie Nakai in the role of Beatrix, John Bubniak in the role of Christopher, Peter Hosking in the role of Policeman Joe.

Matthias Schweighöfer also serves as the director of the film with the story written by Army of Dead director Zack Synder. The director while appearing in a separate interview last week praised Synder for guiding him in directing the zombie-heist film. “His creativity and his fantastic eye, He has so much, his energy and his visionary ideas. And Zack told me if you want to create things, you really have to create. Take your time. Be there, be focus, be present. And dream big. You're allowed to dream big. You can do everything. It's your space. So yeah, that's what I took. Because I'm a thief, that's what I took from him on the set of Army of Thieves."
"I don't know, I mean, look, Matthias is a kind of unusual case, and it's kind of a perfect storm, And so, it's a great gift that we got from him. Not only being an amazing actor and having this amazing character, but also that he is a director and understands storytelling and dramatic direction and so he was able to have this ensemble cast and put them all together into a movie. So, thank God we had this happen. So I don't... because I wasn't necessarily like, on the hunt for an actor/director, but it just worked out perfectly."
