You’re here because, you’re one of us, become a gear
If there’s one upcoming video game adaptation that actually makes sense, it’sGears of War.Its visuals are pretty much perfect for adaptation, and Hollywood sure loves stories where big beefy men and women shoot a bunch of aliens. I knowGears of Warhas some emotion in there somewhere too, so it’s an adaptation served on a silver platter.
According to Deadline, Universal and Microsoft Studios have hired Shane Selarno to write the adaptation’s script, which will be an all new story set in theGearsuniverse. Selarno is currently writing James Cameron’sAvatarsaga (handlingparts two through five, jesus) and his past credits include…uh…Savages, Alien vs. Predator: Requiem, Shaft, oh andArmageddeon!
But what stands out to me the most is that Selarno wrote a few episodes ofNew York Undercover, one of the greatest TV shows of all time. Malik Yoba is the G.O.A.T.
