Call of Dutyis going to be a " real movie , " and it ’s coming sooner than later . Stefano Sollima directed this month ’s highly - anticipated movie , Sicario 2 , for which he ’s already receiving some cocksure former buzz . Of of course , he ’s also busy prepping two newfangled boob tube show , but those are n’t the only projects he has line up .
In November 2015 , it was revealed that Activision Blizzard Studios would develop a robustcinematic universe based onCall of Duty , a first - person shooter game that has become an iconic franchise since it began in 2003 . The game debut on PC and presently spread to several consoles and handhelds . It has produce several successful installing , including multiple spinoff plot . One of the most democratic spinoffs , Call of responsibility : Black Ops3,was recently madeavailable for free for PS Plus members . And now , Call of Duty : Black Ops 4is exercise set to release later this year , but there ’s so much more on the purview for the franchise , admit a moving picture .
In an interview with Screen Rant forSicario : twenty-four hours of the Soldado , Stefano Sollima briefly discussed hisCall of Dutymovie and seemed to be throwing some wraith at the video game film genre when asked what he has in store .
" I ca n’t recount you but for certain , it ’s going to be a material flick . "
Of course , one can understand his pretty shady reception . Although some films likeRampageandTomb Raiderhave get a small amount of acclaim , the majority of video plot plastic film , such asTekkenandBloodrayne 2 : rescue , have become subjects of cinematic scoffing . Sollima hopes to take away the stigmata produced by all these black video game movies .
the great unwashed have halt their hopes high ever since it was announced that Sollima was in negotiations todirect theCall of Dutyfilmin February . Perhaps Sollima will separate himself from other manager who do n’t realize that not only do picture games not have compelling story , but audiences do n’t take the stories seriously in the first situation . Perhaps a video game movie should centralize on being fun , like the video plot itself .
Sollima sure realize this , but of course , a great peck of the picture hinges on its story ( and there are so many era to explore ) . Plus , Call of Dutyis a property that can get aside with not being considered a video game moving picture but rather a war flick . With Sollima ’s direction , it ’s quite possible that theCall of Dutyfilm will become one of the more successful video game movies .
