A new video game to movie adaptation is in progress, but in this case, the step seemed inevitable as it is a PlayStation exclusive that stood out at the time for its proposal as an interactive horror work, so now it will have the opportunity to tell its story on the big screen.
Movie announced for Until Dawn - Who will be the director?
An exclusive from Hollywood Reporter revealed the making of a movie for Until Dawn, a title developed by Supermassive Games that debuted in 2015 for PlayStation 4. According to the information, the production will be handled by Screen Gems and PlayStation Productions, and as expected, talents from the horror film industry have been sought for direction and screenplay.
In the case of the direction of the Until Dawn movie, it will be handled by David F. Sandberg, director of Shazam! and Shazam! Fury of the Gods, but he also has a history in horror films as he directed Annabelle: Creation.
The screenplay and production of the Until Dawn movie are exciting for this reason
As for the screenplay, this is where greater anticipation is generated as it will be handled, along with production, by Gary Dauberman, a renowned contemporary horror screenwriter whose work includes It, Annabelle, and The Nun.
Until Dawn proposed an interactive drama[/url] starring a group of friends on a traditional winter vacation visit to Blackwood Pines. Supermassive Games opted for a butterfly effect system with a branching tree of possibilities that resulted in changes during the development of the story and its ending, making decision-making crucial due to the consequences it carries. The descent into a spiral of ominous events, terrifying discoveries, and the madness of the protagonists was seasoned with horror elements from the studio's influences, such as Evil Dead II, Poltergeist, Resident Evil, and Silent Hill.
Since we are talking about video game to movie adaptations, this news coincides, interestingly, with the announcement that a film inspired by the psychological horror game Martha is Dead is also in production, so in the coming years, we will have at least a couple of movies based on some great horror games.
