New Line’s ‘Space Invaders’ Movie is Back in Business
New Line Cinema is moving forward with a live-action film adaptation of the classic arcade game "Space Invaders." The project, which has been in development for several years, has regained momentum with the hiring of writer Greg Russo to pen the screenplay. The film will draw inspiration from the original 1978 game, which featured players defending the Earth against an onslaught of invading alien spaceships. While plot details are scarce, the movie is expected to use the game's iconic visuals and gameplay as a foundation for a modern sci-fi action story. The "Space Invaders" film is the latest in a growing trend of classic video game adaptations, following the success of recent movies like "Pokémon: Detective Pikachu" and "Sonic the Hedgehog." With a well-known brand and the potential for ambitious visual effects, the project could attract a wide audience if developed and marketed effectively.
