The game "Gears of War" will be adapted into film and animation


1905 Movie News According to foreign media reports, the film and television copyright of the famous game "Gears of War" has been won by Netflix. On the 16th anniversary of the game's release, Netflix announced that it will build a live-action movie and an adult animated series around the game, and there may be more projects in the future. The lineup of filmmakers and producers has not yet been determined.


"Gears of War" is a shooting game developed by Epic Games, which was launched on November 7, 2006. The story of the game narrates the battle for survival between humans in the future world and the underground race Rokas. The type of game is not a common first-person shooter, but a third-person strategy action game with a rear view point, which can more clearly show the every move of the player's character, and the interaction with the environment is more vivid and rich. In the game, players must lead the war hero Marcus Phoenix and his team to face the fierce attacks of various brutal monsters alone. In early 2015, the game was officially handed over to Microsoft's subsidiary game company for development.


For many years, Hollywood has been trying to make this project film and television, and the new line won the copyright in 2007, but it failed to develop. In 2009, Len Wiseman ("Underworld") was brought in by producer Wick Godfrey to write the script, with no follow-up. In 2016, Universal took over the operation, and Sean Salerno wrote the script, and there is no following. At present, there is no specific news about the filming and release of these two film and television projects.
