300 Team takes on Gears of War Movie

Posted by: PuppetMaster
This is pretty darn good news. The folks at Legendary Pictures who did 300, Superman Returns and The Watchmen are going to co-produce and co-finance the upcoming Gears of War Movie. This is some great news and pretty much ensures a fun ride!
 
The movie will take place during the Pendulum Wars which is the 79 year war that manking fought on Sera. The movie will follow Marcus Fenix as they battle a monstrous insect invasion. It seems the story will be told with some flash backs and involve a mix of characters. Sounds promising! Stuart Beattie (Collateral) is writing the screenplay and Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey are producing via their Temple Hill.
 
Gears of War has sold over 3 million units and is hugely popular on Microsoft's Xbox Live service, which allows players to compete against each other online. Though it was released in November and is available only for the Xbox 360 console, it quickly became the fourth bestselling game of 2006 in the U.S.
