Take a deep breath as we dive into the latest BioShock movie news

Posted by Dekko on Apr 15th 2009 08:25

Hey folks, it seems like an age ago that BioShock was released into our greedy, accepting open palms and the eerie world of Rapture became a tourist destination for us to explore and screw with as we so wished.

The news of a BioShock movie hit a while back but things have been quiet for a bit, still waters on the ocean if you will and the anticipation and hope of a good adaptation has ached through the collective bones of the gaming community so I bring you news, hark the herald angels sing!

Here is a snippet of BioShock movie news courtesy of FirstShowing.net, check it out folks and imagine a well written, big budget movie of the game.

We can only hope.

What do you reckon?

“This isn't exactly new news, but considering we didn't know what Gore Verbinski would be directing next, it is at least news. Variety has confirmed that Verbinski has told Disney and producer Jerry Bruckheimer that he will not be directing the fourth installment of the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise.

Instead, Verbinski will be moving onto the live-action adaptation of the video game BioShock, which was first announced last May. Universal is developing this, with a script written by Oscar nominated screenwriter John Logan of Any Given Sunday, Gladiator, The Last Samurai, The Aviator, and Sweeney Todd.

"I had a fantastic time bringing Pirates to life, and I am eternally grateful to Jerry, Johnny and the rest of the creative and production team," Verbinski told Variety. "I'm looking forward to all of us crossing paths again in the future."

Since At World's End hit in 2007, Verbinski has been working on an animated film called Rango that will feature the voice of Johnny Depp.

In addition to BioShock, he's also attached to a remake of Clue, a Second Life movie, a project called Black Hole about a scammed rancher, and David Fincher's Heavy Metal. Now you know why we were unsure of what Verbinski would be doing next.

I actually think this is great news, not only because I love Verbinski's style and have a feeling it'll work perfectly for BioShock, but also just because I think a movie version BioShock would be awesome.

I've heard some other exciting details about this that I can't yet report, but I can tell you this isn't a video game adaptation to be worried about. While a budget hasn't been revealed, this BioShock movie is looking to be one of the most expensive video game movies besides Prince of Persia (via SlashFilm).

Welcome to Rapture.”

OK, that’s the lot.

I hope it gets the fires burning in your heart for the movie, or the idea of a good BioShock movie at least.

I reckon all the parts are falling into place, the writers are talented and Verbinski knows his onions; BioShock the Movie could be proper Bo.

Best be prepared, keep a snorkel handy.
