EA's Dead Space to Be Brought to Big Screen

Announced at Comic-Con over the weekend, the successful EA game Dead Space (click here for game trailer) is going to be turned into a live-action film. Temple Hill production company (who is also making the Gears of War movie, which should be awesome) teamed up again with EA to bring the movie to life with attached director DJ Caruso. Caruso has previously done Eagle Eye and Disturbia so hopefully that doesn't mean Shia LaBeouf is going to be in the film, and ruin it. Caruso does have a flare for strong visuals and the ability to create tension, so hopefully he'll bring that to Dead Space which is a horror/sci-fi game. A lot of video games are now becoming movies, which is great because some of the greatest writers are in the VG industry and now their stories will become even more public. EA also announced that the Dead Space franchise is going to most likely become a trilogy which fans everywhere should be stoked about because the first game is amazing. No release date has been set yet for the movie, but if they're announcing it now, it'll most likely be released in 2012 but that's just my guess.

Other EA films in development: Gears of War, Mass Effect, Dante's Inferno, Army of Two, and The Sims. Click here for full article.
