DEAD SPACE Movie Confirmed, D.J. Caruso Directing
According to Variety, DJ Caruso, director of “Eagle Eye”, “Smallville” and “Disturbia” has signed on to direct a movie of the EA sci-fi zombie horror hit videogame “Dead Space.”
EA will produce the film with Temple Hill partners Marty Bowen and Wyck Godfrey (Twilight, Twilight: New Moon).
Dead Space takes place in deep space in the 26th century. It is a bold and bloody sci-fi survival horror game that follows the story of Isaac Clarke, a normal systems engineer, who is sent with a small repair team to restore communications aboard an immense mining ship, the USG Ishimura. It’s a living nightmare on board the Ishimura, as the crew has been unspeakably mutilated and infected by an ancient alien scourge. Clarke’s repair mission becomes one of survival as he fights not just to save himself, but to return the artifact to the planet at any cost.
EA launched the game in 2008 and is working on the second and third installments.
No release date or actor information has been revealed for the film, which is just one of five EA game-based movies in development. “Mass Effect”, “Dante’s Inferno”, “Army of Two”, and “The Sims” are also being brought to the big screen.
Caruso is also developing “Defender,” the Gary Witta-scripted DreamWorks drama that Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci are producing.
