Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun Li screenwriter Justin Marks is scripting the live-action adaptation of the video game Dead Space, it was revealed during a video game movies panel at yesterday's San Diego Comic-Con.
Marks said his challenge is to do something "new and intriguing" with the Dead Space movie and not simply rehash the actions of the game. “You would be making Event Horizon or Alien,” he said. “I’ve already seen that movie."
EA hopes a Dead Space movie will launch a big screen franchise based on the horror/sci-fi game. Patrick O'Brien, who oversees the film division of EA, said the Dead Space movie will be shopped to studios once the latest draft of the script is complete.
Philip Gelatt (Europa Report) penned the previous draft of the Dead Space script.
