Gore Verbinski will film BioShock

27th May 2008

One of the best games of last year, the shooter BioShock, called by many profile publishers â€œthe game of the yearâ€, will soon receive its embodiment on large screens. The film based on the game will be directed by the author of the famous trilogy â€œPirates of the Caribbeanâ€ Gore Verbinski, and the script will be written by John Logan, who worked on â€œAviatorâ€, reports Variety.com.
According Verbinski ( a great fan of computer games, by the way), from all games he ever played, BioShock has the greatest cinematic potential.
Verbinski points out that we should not expect the epic scope of â€œPirates of the Caribbeanâ€, as the game plot is more â€œchamberâ€.
The director is prepared to face the fact that the film could be ranged as â€œRâ€ (Restricted, people over 18 y.o.) because the original storyline of the game is also not meant for young audiences (BioShock has been given the rating â€œMâ€ (players over 17 y.o.).
As for one of the main characters of BioShock, Big Daddy, according to Verbinski, he will not be fully established with the help of computer special effects: director also plans to use live actors to shoot the characters.
