Story Kitchen, a media company renowned for bringing games and other non-traditional properties to film and TV, is spearheading the project. They are currently assembling a package deal that includes writers, a director, and cast. This team previously worked on the upcoming film adaptation of Hazelight Studios’ It Takes Two, and has also been involved in other notable projects such as the Sonic the Hedgehog films and Netflix's Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft.
