"We are out to make a new classic, one which the fans of the game will love.", you're never too far away from a video game movie story.was first announced in 2015, it looks like this thing is finally set to move forward.
Five years ago, Saw and Insidious co-creator Leigh Whannell was reportedly attached to the project, but has since gone on to make the likes of 2018's underrated Upgrade and The Invisible Man, which hits cinemas later this month. Also arriving this month; news of a brand new director for Borderlands in the form of Eli Roth, he of Cabin Fever, Hostel and The Green Inferno fame. You'll also have seen Roth pop up in the odd film or two in an acting capacity, most notably as Donny 'The Bear Jew' Donowitz in Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds.
Roth's most recent directorial engagements have been something of a mixed bag, with the Bruce Willis Death Wish remake in 2018 bombing with critics but doing vaguely okay at the box office . Roth also ventured into more family-friendly territory in the same year with The House with a Clock in its Walls but you'd imagine that Borderlands, violent, splashy and dark-humoured as it is, will appeal to the 47-year-old's more gruesome side.
