Netflix has announced that its live-action Gears of War movie will be penned by the Academy Award-nominated writer Jon Spaꦐihts, who 🔥wrote Dune 1 and 2 and Doctor Strange.

The news was shared via Netflix's Twitter account some four months after the movie, as well as an "adult animated series," 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:were announced. Of course, we've known about a Gears of War movie existing through various sources for 🍸the last, oh, 15 years or so, but it seems the gears are fully turning now with Netflix joining the hype machine.

In addition to 2021's Dune, its upcoming 2023 sequel, and Doctor Strange, Spaihts wrote the 2012 sci-fi horror movie Prometheus, the Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence-led 2016 sci-fi drama Passengers, and 2017's The Mummy. In fact, there isn't a movie in Spaihts' filmography that doesn't have an element of sci-fi to it, so he appears well primed to adapt Gears of 🐻War for Netflix.

We've still yet to hear any casting news from Netflix, but we've heard plenty from fans as well as the actor they'd like to play Marcus Fenix: Dave Bautista. Back in 2019, Bauti✤sta said he'd "tried everyཧthing" to get in the Gears of War movie, and he enthusiastically 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:pitched himself once more just a few months back.

For what its worth, Bautista's desire t𒆙o star in the Gears of War film isn't random, as he previously played Marcus Fenix for an unlockable skin in Gears 5. Still, i﷽t's unclear whether Netflix will ultimately break and give Bautista the role he's been dreaming of for years.

It also remains to be seen whether Gears of War joins our list of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best video game movies ever made.
