根据知名游戏改编的《真人快打》电影确定拍摄续集,导演Simon McQuoid回归再次执导。
据Deadline报道,在2021年《真人快打》重启版电影(温子仁监制)意外成功后,将重获新生,重回竞技场。根据之前的报道,续集将是《月光骑士》首席编剧Jeremy Slater编写。
《真人快打》电影是McQuoid的导演处女作,2021年4月同步上了HBO Max和电影院,在全球获得了8440万美元的票房,而且也是HBO有史以来观看次数最多的电影之一。
游戏改编成电影和电视剧的收视率和票房足以说明它们的成功性。今年早些时候,Amazonsigned dj2 Entertainment签订了第一份协议,为Prime Video创作游戏内容,可能将改编游戏《奇异人生》和《极乐迪斯科》。最近,Netflix刚刚宣布将制作游戏《生化奇兵》的改编电影。
New Line Cinema is officially reteaming with director Simon McQuoid on the Mortal Kombat film franchise's next sequel, according to Deadline. McQuoid will direct a script from Jeremy Slater (Moon Knight). Greg Russo, who penned the original, said back in April 2021 shortly after Mortal Kombat came out that a sequel's focus would be obvious since his movie necessarily left out entire realms due only to limited run time. In an interview around release, Russo said, "One of the realms that I felt like it didn't make sense to introduce in this story because we were so focused on Earthrealm and Outworld, was Edenia, which is another big realm in the Mortal Kombat universe." That could potentially mean that many of the characters that eagle-eyed fans noticed were missing could be making an appearance. Though Russo is not yet officially in the creative mix, he--and McQuoid--previously had discussed Kitana, Sindel, Jade, and Johnny Cage as obvious contenders for the next film. Wrestler-actor The Miz has been on the record about wanting to play Cage in the sequel, and earlier this year mentioned in an interview that he's been training since the sequel was announced--just in case. The first Mortal Kombat film, a reboot of the previous franchise, came out in 2021 and went on to generate $84.4 million at the global box office. Video game adaptations into movies and TV series are enjoying a resurgence with real ratings and box office viability. Earlier this year, Amazon signed dj2 Entertainment to a first-look deal to create gaming content for Prime Video, including potential adaptations of Life Is Strange and Disco Elysium. Recently, Netflix has just announced a BioShock movie.
