Gears of War movie still a few years away

360 News | 2010, to be exact.
According to ComingSoon.net, the movie adaptation of Microsoft's hit sci-fi game Gears of War is set to be released in 2010.

"We've got our script on and a director we're about to attach. We'll hopefully make that early next year for the summer of 2010," said Wyck Godfrey, a producer on the project.

In 2007, it was announced that New Line Cinema has purchased the film rights to Epic Games' exclusive Xbox 360 shooter. Stuart Beattie, who scripted the first Pirates of the Caribbean movie, is penning the adaptation and Temple Hill Entertainment are managing production duties. Epic Games Lead Designer Cliff Bleszinski helped Beattie create a pitch for the Gears of War movie, while the idea of using the same visual style as 300 has also been thrown around.

Bleszinski revealed at the San Francisco Game Developers Conference back in February that Gears of War 2 is currently in development, for release sometime during November.

Well, let's hope this one isn't consigned to development hell like Halo. Regardless of whether it's good or not, or whether you like the game or not, every time a game is made into a movie, that represents society accepting gaming more readily. icon_smile.gif

And besides, I bet this will kick ass. icon_biggrin.gif
