Len Wiseman, director of Die Hard 4.0 and Underworld, takes the big job of shouting ”cut” and is working along with Chris Morgan to scribble a script, reports Variety.
Our industries own Cliffy B is attached as executive producer and will be consulting on behalf of Epic Games and Microsoft.
New Line Cinema secured the rights to make the film adaptation of Epic’s blockbustering Gears of War franchise, with a sequel intended to blow the first away game away this fall.
”It’s like with our games, you can have it right or have it right now. We want to get it right. There’s no timetable for us. We just want to make as good a movie as we can, and we think (Wiseman’s) the guy who will do it,” Epic’s vp Mark Rein chipped in.
Given these recent developments it’s likely the movie won’t be seeing a showtime during summer next year. Fans will be mostly excited about Gears of War 2 at this point I would imagine anyway.
