Ok, it's officially a trend! 'World War Z' is following the example set first by the 'Iron Man 3' trailer and then the 'Evil Dead' remake trailer by offering up its first footage in the form of a teaser trailer. The first full-length 'World War Z' trailer is set to hit this Thursday on Entertainment Tonight, and to get you psyched up, the show has revealed some brief but awesome footage.

After all the reshoots and shuffling of writers, the 'World War Z' trailer is finally... almost here. While we wait for the first official 'World War Z' trailer to hit this Thursday on Entertainment Tonight, we've got some teaser footage for you. We know, it's lame to tease trailers, but that's the world we live in now. So, how's about a first look at Brad Pitt trying to save the world from hordes of zombies?

These aren't your 'Walking Dead' zombies we're talking about. These undead minions are fast little creepers who will pile on top of each other, forming a wave of zombies to try and eat your brains. Directed by 'Quantum of Solace' helmer Marc Forster, 'World War Z' follows a UN employee (Brad Pitt) who's racing against the clock, traveling around the world to try and stop this zombie pandemic!

Watch the 'World War Z' trailer teaser below and be sure to tune into Entertainment Tonight on Thursday for the world premiere of the official trailer.
