It would seem that unless you’re making a movie based on a videogame franchise then you’re simply not cool. The latest videogame set to make a jump to the silver screen is the as yet unreleased Kameo, set to launch with the Xbox 360 on December 2 in Europe. Production company Maxmedia has acquired the rights to produce a film based on the game and the feature length animation will be written and directed by Sunmin Park, who was behind the beautiful Wonderful Days (Sky Blue in the US).
“Rare and Microsoft have developed a stunning broad-appeal game, and I am thrilled to take the origins of ‘Kameo: Elements of Power’ from Xbox 360 to a new level of cinematic experience,” Park said.
Now, in what will be seen as good or possibly bad news, according to the Hollywood Reporter Paul W. S. Anderson is returning to the Resident Evil franchise to make Resident Evil: Afterlife. Anderson directed the first of the Resident Evil movies, which was in my opinion vastly superior to the trash that was Nemesis, but his movie making record isn’t all that hot, with the disappointing Alien Vs. Predator and Soldier to his name. Milla Jovovich will be back, once again reprising her role of Alice. Other cast details are yet to be announced.
Neither movie has been given a release date, but work on Kameo is scheduled to begin next year.
