At this time, we don’t know what story theGears of Warmovie will tell, whether it will be a re-telling of the video game series or its own standalone story. We also do not know who’ll be directing the movie. However, Zack Snyder has seemingly thrown his name into the hat.
When speaking to IGN at Gamescom this week, Snyder was asked if there’s a gaming property that he would like to turn into a movie and the director mentioned the Gears of War series. Interestingly, he appeared to be somewhat hesitant about mentioning the game. Reading between the lines, is there already something in the works with the director and was he concerned he might let slip? We can only speculate at this time.
That being said, it’s perhaps worth keeping in mind that Zack Snyder already has an established relationship withNetflixwith platform-exclusive movies such asArmy of the DeadandArmy of Thieves. Not to mention theupcoming Rebel Moon movies. What’s more, Snyder and Bautista worked together inArmy of the Dead, so things would certainly click into place.
