'Monument Valley' will be getting a movie adaptation
If you thought Detective Pikachu and Sonic the Hedgehog were the last of video game movie adaptation, think again. Paramount Pictures and Akiva Goldman’s Weed Road Pictures are going to adapt Monument Valley into a movie, according to an exclusive Deadline report.
If you own a smartphone, you might have heard of or even tried this critically acclaimed puzzle game with soothing soundtracks from Ustwo Games. The title launched back in 2014 and now boasts over 160 million downloads worldwide and won awards like the Apple Design Award 2014, Apple iPad Game of the Year, and two BAFTAs for Best British Game and Best Mobile & Handheld Game.
“It’s been four years since we launched the first Monument Valley and have been waiting for the perfect opportunity to take our world of beauty and impossibility into cinema. We’re incredibly happy that we’ve found the perfect creative partners in Paramount, Weed Road and Patrick Osborne to champion this concept forward into another medium,” said Dan Gray, Head of Ustwo Games.
The director, Patrick Osborne, who won the Best Animated Short Film Oscar for Feast, had the following to say “Monument Valley is a one of a kind experience, at once small in its meditative, simple gameplay, as well as enormous in its sense of history. I’m privileged to be handed the reins to Ida’s mysterious kingdom, to play in her world of impossible architecture where seeing things differently is everything. I am thrilled to bring this unique world to theaters with the talented storytellers of Paramount and Weed Road.”
The movie adaptation is reportedly going to be a live action/CG hybrid one, sending "contemporary live-action characters into the game’s extraordinary, mind-bending world". How do you think a Monument Valley movie will turn out?
