Video games trade large Activision Blizzard is eagerly exploring the prospect of bringing one other of its main properties to the massive display screen, it might appear.
Not like Common’s live-action adaptation of the excessive fantasy Warcraft franchise, nevertheless, this specific undertaking belongs firmly within the realm of science fiction. Sources near WGTC – the identical ones who stated a Resident Evil 4 remake is in growth and Ahsoka Tano will seem in The Mandalorian season 2, each of which had been appropriate – say that fiercely aggressive shooter Overwatch is probably going next-in-line to get a cinematic journey, with one actor already being eyed to play a key character. Greatest identified for portraying Rey in Disney’s Star Wars Sequel Trilogy, Daisy Ridley is reportedly the best choice to play Lena Oxton or, as most know her, Tracer.
In what’s assuredly no coincidence, each Ridley and Tracer hail from London, England and with the latter famous as having a thick British accent within the sport, it’s hardly stunning that the filmmakers would hunt down a person with that very same recognizable twang related to residents of the nation’s capital. It’s value noting, too, that the pair are nearly similar in age and even look considerably related facially.
An ideal match? We actually suppose so, although it stays to be seen if the casting alternative ever involves cross. As of writing, it’s unknown whether or not Ridley has even been approached to audition for the function or, for that matter, if she’d have an interest. We’re additionally unable to verify which studio this undertaking is housed at. Sony’s a possible candidate, however with Common already having ties to Activision Blizzard, it too, is a risk.
What we’ve realized, nevertheless, is that very similar to Warcraft, Overwatch could be a hybrid of live-action and CGI performances, with characters corresponding to Winston, Bastion and different non-human combatants dictating the latter’s necessity. We’ll you should definitely share any additional growth with you as and after they come however within the meantime, tell us who you’d prefer to see star in an Overwatch film (and which hero you’d prefer to see them play) within the ordinary place beneath!
