Hollywood continues to try and Horror Archivesmake a Gears of Warmovie happen.
Universal Pictures has optioned the rights to Microsoft's popular Xbox video game franchise, it announced Wednesday.
The Gears of Warseries has grossed more than $1 billion worldwide, but despite an army of fans, a movie adaptation has been stuck in development hell.
The same goes for numerous other video game adaptations, such as Halo, BioShock, Call of Duty, Gran Turisimo, Kane & Lynch, The Last of Us, Mass Effect, Metal Gear Solid, Splinter Celland Uncharted. Some of these films have talent (actors/writers/directors) attached, but most don't.
