silentbob Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 I wonder if Gore Verbinski will finally be able to direct his movie with this announcement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamusha Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 A movie on Netflix is more ideal than a series because they can't cancel it after one season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So bring some me to the “Who do you think should direct this?” Neil Blomkamp is usually who I think of for this type of film. Although Del Toro or Denis Villeneuve on this would be amazing as well. I just hope they find the right person for this project with that visual eye candy flare (not that type of flare J.J.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Del Toro is definitely the most obvious choice. Second choices would be (and I'm swallowing my pride with this first one) Ryan Johnson, Ang Lee, Sam Raimi, or maybe even Sam Mendes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamusha Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 James Wan would be a good choice as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatoneshere Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Just bring back Gore Verbinski, as others have suggested. He's a fan of the actual game, and he fits the material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heydude93 Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 In interviews Ken Levine said he turned down tons of Bioshock adaptation offers because nobody's vision for it felt on-point enough. One pitch was like, "Rapture is a neat setting and all, but does it have to be underwater?" I reckon the fact that this is even getting made might indicate how positive a note things are starting on.

You wonder if the new tech used with The Mandalorian helped as well. Seems like the proper tech to be used to bring the immersive world to life. Sure green/blue screen too, but I like the real time like shading/lighting the newer tech could bring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible we're on the verge of seeing game adaptations as good as anything else in film and TV right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greatoneshere Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 It looks like the Michael Green-penned, Francis Lawrence-directed film is still a go at Netflix for now. That's a good writer and a good director, so here's hoping. Not sure if Francis Lawrence gets to this or Constantine 2 first. Probably Constantine 2 first. 'BioShock' Movie Writer Gives an Exciting Update About Live-Action Adaptation COLLIDER.COM 'Blade Runner 2049' scribe Michael Green is back working on the adaptation of the acclaimed video game.

Kal-El814 Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Hopefully the movie captures the agonizing choice the player had to make… either save a child’s life or kill them to get some ammo. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
