Hal-life y Portal they will be taken to the movies. This is the bomb you dropped JJ Abrams Recently. And although I have not yet seen a movie based on a game that has impressed me enough, I have to admit that this news excites me.
And I like it for the simple reason that behind these games are good stories and JJ Abrams he has become a good storyteller. Which has also shown its versatility in recent times, directing films as diverse as Star Wars y Star Trek. Both with very good acceptance.
The director of Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens, has committed to developing adaptations of the two best video game franchises developed by Valve. The decision to make two films of both games was recently revealed in an interview by the director himself:
They are in development. We have the writers and we are working with the stories of both.
It seems that the agreement they have reached Abrams Books y Gabe Newell It began to unfold after a conference at DICE 2013. From then on the two concluded that it would be a good idea to join forces and make films of both stories. After all, I don't think a bad adaptation will come out.
And this is news that video game and movie lovers should be aware of. Behind these games there are great stories and it is fortunate that a director like Abrams has turned to them to develop films. We will see how this issue comes out and we will try to keep ourselves informed as much as possible.
