A Call of Duty movie is coming
Call of Duty is being adapted into a live action film as part of a new deal signed by Activision and Paramount. Paramount, the film studio behind Top Gun: Maverick, will “develop, produce, and distribute a live-action feature film” based on the franchise, and “both companies are committed to honoring the brand’s rich narrative and distinctive style,” the companies say in a press release.
Years ago, Activision was working on a Call of Duty film that never ended up getting released, but this new movie could be a huge deal. The Call of Duty series has sold more than 500 million copies globally and the campaigns in the games tell big, cinematic, action-packed stories. A Call of Duty-style story could be a good fit for a movie, though obviously we’ll have to wait and see the final product to know how it turns out.
The two companies haven’t shared any details about a potential release window, a director, or any stars for the cast. But David Ellison, the new CEO and chairman of Paramount, a Skydance Corporation, is apparently a big fan of the franchise, so it seems likely that the film is going to be a priority for him — especially when things like The Super Mario Bros. Movie, A Minecraft Movie, The Last of Us, and Fallout have been huge hits for other studios.
