On March 20, 2007, it was announced that New Line Cinema had purchased the rights to make a Gears of Warfilm, with Stuart Beattie writing the script along with Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey, who will be producing it. The film is scheduled to be released in 2009. Producer Wyck Godfrey said of the film adaptation, "I'm not a gamer, but what blew me away about Gears was how it captures the mythology of a war mission and how high the stakes are." It has been announced in the May 2007 issue of Game Informer that Cliff Bleszinski (lead designer of the game) will be the executive producer of the film. On August 3, 2007, AICN.com reported that Len Wiseman was to direct the movie adaptation of Gears of War., though on March 30, 2007, Godfrey stated that they have "a director we're about to attach" in order to film the movie during 2009 and release in 2010.
Wiseman was officially signed on in June of 2008 with Chris Morgan performing script rewrites.
Yeah, I posted this a couple months back. But I mos def want to see it. I just hope they don't glamorize it, I want it to be dark and gritty, not super lame like Doom was. With Cliff at the helm as the producer I think it could turn out pretty good to be honest.
GoW in theaters?
