Your favorite PlayStation came m🍰ight be getting the Hollywood treatmen༒t soon.
Speaking at CES 2021, PlayStation boss Jim Ryan revealed that the upcoming film adaptation of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Uncharted and HBO's 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Last of Us 🤡series are "just the beginning" of what Sony has planned for their most p𝓀opular IPs.
Here's what Ryan said:
This is just the beginning of the expansion of our storytelling into new media and even wid🌳er audiences. Sony is a creative entertainment comp♍any and entertainment has never been more important.
The upcoming 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Uncharted movie features Tom Holland as Nathan Drake and Mark Whalberg as Sully. Principal photography began last summer and wrapped on October 30. The film is a prequel to the Uncharted series, taking place years before the original Uncharted game when Nathan Drake was a young treasure hunter. Despite years of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:ups and downs, the U🐼ncharted movie is scheduled to release in theaters on July 1✤6.
The Last o🃏f Us series for HBO was announced this past March. Craig Mazen (Chernobyl, Superhero Movie) will serve as the showrunner for the series, which will follow the story of The Last of Us more closely than Uncharted. Whil🌊e we don't yet know who has been cast for the series or when it will air, we do know Mazin is working closely with Naughty Dog and TLOU2 director Neil Druckmann. In an interview with the last June, Mazen saiಞd "In this case, I’m doing it with [Neil Druckmann], and so the changes that we're making are designed to fill things out and expand, not to undo, but rather to enhance."
At CES 2021, Jim Ryan did not reveal anything specific about other upcoming adaptation. With the two biggest franchises out of the way, it's easy to speculate on the other PlayStation games that might event♋ually hit the big screen.
Screenwriter David Self wrote a God of War screenplay back in 2005, but that project has faced the same kind of turmoil as Uncharted. Pacific Rim: Uprising's director, Steven S. DeKnight, has expressed interest in directing the film. If the project moves forward, DeKnight has said he would like to cast 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Dave Bautista as Kratos. Other possible adaptations include Horizon, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Bloodborne, and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Little Big Planet.
