David Leitch in talks with the film Big Budget of War by Dirigioni

It seems Gears of War It is finally obtaining the power of film fire it deserves.

David Leitchwho recently directed theThe autumn boyIt is now in negotiation for the adaptation of the long -lasting features of Helm Netflix of the legendary series of Xbox video games.

This marks a great move for Netflix, which collected the rights in 2022 and silently put the pieces for what hopes to become a serious franchise.

Leitch will produce the film with his creative wife and partner Kelly McCormick Under their 87north banner. They teach with the coalition, the study based in Vancouver who currently guides Gears games.

Gears of War It is basically the science fiction war fueled by testosterone has reached 11. The story is set on a dying planet in which the underground monsters called locust emerge to conduct the war on the last fragments of human civilization. At the center is Marcus Fenix, a former grill and scarred soldier who guides Delta Squad on what is essentially a suicide mission to save humanity.

The film was written by Jon Spahtsbetter known for Dune AND Prometheus. With him who manages the script, fans can expect a rooted cinematographic world that still captures the grit, madness and scale of games.

Leitch looks like a natural solution for Gear. His action pedigree is difficult to beat. He is the boy behind Bullet train, Atomic blonde, Deadpool 2, John WickAND Hobbs and Shaw. He knows his action scene and, above all, knows how to make personal action feel, elegant and guided by the character.

Netflix plan is to drive with this film, follow -Up with an animated series for adults and expand from there … assuming that the public would look and like what they see.

Second Gears of War Head Rod FergussonThe film will not be set in the same reality as the game. It will be his thing and will tell his story, a story that will not depend on the games. Previously he explained:

“In order for the film to be successful, it must be a great movie first and a Gears movie second. Basically the way we reconciled ourselves, we said,” Oh, the film should be an alternative reality. It should not depend on the history of the game, nor should it influence the history of the game. “

Fergusson added: “I heard about other franchises that come with this very large Bible and this really, here are all the rules now go and face 700 pages of how you live in our world.

“When we did it, we were two pages. I was like,” here are two pages of not will have no and recommendations. “We want people to have the freedom to have new ideas and take things in a different way.”

It was also said that there were still some stopped points of the franchise that will be true for the film. Fergusson has revealed that it should be set on the evening and that it should play some characters who are familiar to fans.

The gears are moving. And with Leitch at the helm, there is a real shot that this adaptation could be tough!
