Huma Qureshi calls her upcoming Hollywood project, Zack Snyder's Army of the Dead, a "natural progression" in her career, after working with celebrated Indian filmmakers from the West -- Gurinder Chadha and Deepa Mehta.

She credits her innings on Netflix Originals series Leila, co-directed by Mehta, for her casting in Snyder's comeback to the zombie genre. 'Leila' received a lot of appreciation and I believe some of that helped me as a lot of international filmmakers follow what we are making out of India. My journey has always been like that.
