Concrete steps have begun to be taken for the Xbox Gears of War game movie, which has been in production for years and has never been realized. While Netflix has accelerated production by allocating a significant budget to the project, action has also been taken for the name that will direct the movie. According to the information received, negotiations have begun with David Leitch, one of the important names in action cinema.
Gears of War game will officially become a movie
David Leitch attracted attention by directing the first John Wick movie with Chad Stahelski. He then made a name for himself with fast-paced movies such as Atomic Blonde, Deadpool 2 and Bullet Train. Although an official signature has not been made yet, it is stated that Netflix is keen on entrusting the Gears of War project to Leitch.
The script of the movie will be written by Jon Spaihts, one of the famous names in science fiction cinema. Spaihts had previously worked on major productions such as Prometheus, Passengers and Dune. The coming together of two powerful names such as Spaihts and Leitch for the Gears of War movie has excited the fans of the game quite a bit.
Ubisoft has decided to delay many major game projects. This development has worried game enthusiasts a lot.
The story is about the fight against creatures that emerge from the underground and threaten humanity. A special commando unit called Delta Squad will be humanity’s last hope in the giant war on the planet Sera.
However, it is not yet clear whether the film adaptation that Netflix will prepare will be directly loyal to the game story or prefer a different narrative set in the same universe. So what do you think about this? You can share your opinions with us in the comments section below.
