Ubisoft in talks with Warner Bros., Paramount on Splinter Cell movie

4.7
Tom Clancy's no stranger to films, so it's not the most surprising news to hear that his Splinter Cell line of video games may be getting the cinematic treatment. Deadline reports that Ubisoft is in talks with both Warner Bros. and Paramount Pictures over the potential for a film tie-in (though talks with the former are said to have fizzled already).

It's unclear which game, if any, the film would follow. It's also important to note that deals like this don't always pan out (we're looking at you, Uncharted and BioShock films). And even if the film rights were optioned by a film studio, there's then no guarantee that a script would be written or a film made. What we're trying to say is: take all of this with a Bonneville Salt Flats-sized grain of ... well, you know.

Mission impossible is the closest thing we have to a SC movie but if they go with this it would be great.

IVI Why are they making a Splinter Cell movie instead of a Modern Warfare, Modern Warfare 2 and Modern Warfare 3 movie...that would be AMAZING!


Call of Duty isnt any good its mostly based on multiplayer, Splintercell would make a great movie unlike CoD

MW3 A FPS movie would make a good movie, As long as there is lots of action and explosions.
I am sure there will be alot of action and explosions i mean how can they make a splintercell movie without them


Thats true. they should make a Assassins Creed movie. that would be sick no?


I'm pretty sure not to long ago they had mention a movie was in the works. I could be wrong though. Assassin's Creed's storyline would be great for a movie.

Woobie Videogame movies are never that good but this one actually sounds like it would be cool.

Off topic: as much as I love Halo.. I could never watch a movie of it.


I agree, this sounds pretty good!
I would also like to see a movie of RAGE... I love those types of movies (:
