The film was recently announced and is already shaping up to be one of the bigger video game adaptations in the works right now. The movie was previously confirmed last year when Paramount Pictures and Activision signed a major deal.
The movie will be directed by Peter Berg, who is also co-writing the script alongside Taylor Sheridan. Both Berg and Sheridan are also on board as producers, joined by David Glasser and Rob Kostich.
