Speaking on movies based on video games, it seems that Ubisoft hasn’t learned its lesson with Assassin’s Creed movie which despite starring Michael Fassbender the movie was a critical and financial dud and Ubisoft is working on a Division movie.
The Division movie will star Jake Gyllenhaal along with Jessica Chastain, and Gyllenhaal will not only star in the movie but will also produce the movie himself. The silver screen adaptation will follow the story of the game very closely. The movie will focus on a military unit trying to find a cure for the disease that has nearly destroyed New York.
Also, a Gears of War movie is also in the works as The Coalition’s studio head, Rod Fergusson has announced that The Coalition has partnered with Universal Studios to make the movie based on the best-selling game franchise.
