Vertigo lager film av Thief

Straight Up Films har kjøpt filmrettigheten til Thief av Square Enix. Serien gjorde som kjent comeback for to år siden i Eidos Montreals Thief hvor vi fulgte historien til mestertyven Garrett. Det var et underholdende eventyr, og vi tror konseptet kan passe godt til filmformatet.

En haug med kjente navn er allerede innblandet i produksjonen, noe du kan se fra pressemeldingen her:

Straight Up Films will produce the feature adaptation with Roy Lee and Adrian Askarieh. The company's President of Production, Sandra Condito, will serve as executive producer, along with Khalid Jones of Source Rock and Square Enix's subsidiary, Eidos-Montréal. Feature film writing duo Adam Mason and Simon Boyes (Misconduct, Hangman, Not Safe for Work) will write the screenplay. Lee, who will produce under his Vertigo Entertainment shingle, was a producer on the How to Train Your Dragon franchise, and is currently developing sequels to 2014's critically acclaimed box office hit The Lego Movie. Askarieh's film credits include 2007's Hitman, starring Timothy Olyphant and Olga Kurylenko, and its sequel Hitman: Agent 47. He will produce the movie under his Prime Universe production banner.
