Capcom is Developing a ‘Mega Man’ Live-Action Movie

Date:

Capcom is now developing a live-action Mega Man movie.

Last year, Capcom celebrated their 30th anniversary. Now, the company is gearing up to release a live-action film adaptation of Megan Man. While details for the upcoming live-action adaptation of the cult-classic video game is scarce for now, 20th Century Fox is in the middle of hiring a creative team responsible for bringing the Blue Bomber to the big screen. So far, Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman (Paranormal Activity 3 & 4, Catfish) will write and direct, while Chemin Entertainment (Planet of the Apes series) will co-produce alongside Masi Oka (Heroes).

According to a press release, Capcom said, “Based on the influential and globally beloved Mega Man franchise, Capcom aims to appeal to a diverse audience, including not only game players but action movie fans as well, with an adaptation that maintains the world of the Mega Man games, while incorporating the grand production and entertainment value that Hollywood movies are known for.”

There are no reports as to who will be picked to star as the action hero, so be sure to check back for casting calls and updates as soon as they become available.
