The upcoming Helldivers film gained’t closely contain the builders of the sport, in line with Arrowhead Recreation Studios artistic director Johan Pilestedt.
Pilestedt was requested on X if the studio would have a hand within the manufacturing of the upcoming movie. “The brief reply is sure. The lengthy reply is that we’ll see,” he replied. “We aren’t Hollywood individuals, and we don’t know what it takes to make a film. And due to this fact we don’t, and shouldn’t, have last say.”
Though the film remains to be in early improvement, in line with Sony’s announcement final week at CES, it sounds prefer it gained’t be led by anybody at Arrowhead. It’s doable issues may change as time goes on, however it doesn’t look like it’ll be a Final of Us TV present scenario with lead builders co-creating it.
With no names publicly hooked up to the mission, it stays to be seen how the Helldivers film will seize the fun of exterminating area bugs and robots as a military of area marines loyal to a satirical fascist empire. The sport is deeply impressed by 1997’s Starship Troopers, a movie coincidentally owned by Sony that also holds up at the moment, which leaves an enormous query mark on how a lot the variation will lean into that.
PlayStation Productions might be working with Sony Footage on the movie and the remaining is up within the air. Since its creation in 2019, PlayStation Productions has been cooking up movies and tv exhibits primarily based on Sony’s main online game franchises, together with Gran Turismo, Twisted Steel, and The Final of Us. The Helldivers film is only one of seven initiatives on their approach, most of which don’t have any launch date. Sony has already introduced movies primarily based on Horizon Zero Daybreak, Ghost of Tsushima, Days Gone, and Gravity Rush.
