It looks like Netflix is heading to Rapture. The company it says is teaming up with 2K and Take-Two Interactive for a film adaptation of the BioShock series. No other details are available just yet, but based on the image Netflix shared in its announcement, it wouldn’t be a surprise to see him tackling the first game.
There’s a good chance that BioShock will translate well to the big screen (if Netflix, in fact, opts for a theatrical release). The original 2007 game has a stunning Art Deco/underwater setting and an unforgettable story. That’s not to mention great characters – although it remains to be seen whether the filmmakers can truly capture the terror of a Big Daddy running towards them.
The film isn’t the only BioShock project in the works. Cloud Chamber is working on the next installment, which will be the first full game in the series since 2013. BioShock Infinite.
