Gears of War Movie Confirmed to Be in Production at Universal Studios

The Gears of State of war motion-picture show is far from dead. In fact, The Coalition's Studio Caput Rod Fergusson confirmed during a Gears of War four live stream yesterday that the Gears of War motion-picture show is at present in production at Universal Studios.

Fergusson likewise announced that Scott Stuber (known for his work on Ted & Ted 2, The Kingdom, Battleship and 47 Ronin) and Dylan Clark (Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, War for the Planet of the Apes, Oblivion) will be producing. It also appears that the master goal is non to create a true-blue accommodation of any specific game in the franchise, just rather to make a unique Gears of War movie. Fergusson said during the live stream:

As a way to support the franchise the next logical pace was to brand the moving picture. Nosotros'd washed comics and novels in the by but the opportunity to work with Universal to bring the picture show to life was perfect.

When you're doing a movie similar this, yous have to realise that it'south a different medium with a dissimilar audition. I recall if yous were to go in and say, 'Okay, it's got to be completely 100 per cent true-blue to the game catechism,' or the story of the game, what's going to end upwards happening is it's not going to be the best film. The large affair nosotros're really trying to focus on is making the best Gears film possible, as opposed to the one that's the most closest to the game.

He then praised Universal Studios on this specific regard:

That's one of the great things about working with Universal. We're finding that line where we can say it has enough lore and canon that it feels genuine to the game while at the same time going beyond that and asking 'OK, what makes a neat movie'.

We'll probably have to wait a while to scout the Gears of War motion picture in theaters, but at least there'due south Gears of State of war 4 coming up.
