Fox Making Video Game And Movie Simultaneously

Fox Making Video Game And Movie Simultaneously Zombie Studios is a great name for a production studio of any kind, so it's a good thing the company is expanding into pretty much all kind of entertainment. They're partnering with Fox Atomic and Union Entertainment to make Blacklight into a video game, comic book series and movie-- all at the same time.

Talk about ambitious. The plot sounds similar to any number of shooter games we've seen become movies lately-- it's set in the future and is about covert military actions. Variety reports that Jason Dean Hall, who wrote the Ashton Kutcher Sundance feature Spread, will write both the movie and the video game. Does that mean the video game will intentionally have an actual plot, therefore all the better to make a movie out of it?

As crazy ambitious as this sounds, it actually seems like a great way to make a franchise-- create the content all at once, and make sure it works for all the different formats. Now it's just a question of whether or not this generic-sounding idea is actually worth all the effort.
