The Oscar-winning co-writer of Pulp Fiction and the producer of the Silent Hill movies are teaming up to bring the classic video game Castle Wolfenstein to the big screen.

In an announcement made at the American Film Market (AFM), producer Samuel Hadida and Panorama Media said they've tapped Roger Avary (who also scripted the original Silent Hill movie for Hadida) to write and direct Castle Wolfenstein.The filmmaker had been attached to the project (then titled Return to Castle Wolfenstein) a few years ago before his prison sentence for gross vehicular manslaughter and drunken driving.

Here's the official boilerplate on the movie via today's press release: "Castle Wolfenstein is an action adventure film in the vein of Captain America and Inglourious Basterds.  The story follows a young US Army Captain and a British Special Agent on a top secret mission to Castle Wolfenstein, where Hitler will be for the unveiling of a new secret weapon.  After reaching the Castle, our heroes are confronted with Himmler’s SS Paranormal Division and must fight, not only for their survival, but for a mission that could alter the course of the War.".....

 

Es war wohl nur eine Frage der Zeit: der Klassiker Castle Wolfenstein kommt ins Kino. Laut einer Pressemitteilung von Panorama Media wird Roger Avary den Film inszenieren.
Und dabei legt Avary nicht das erste Mal Hand an einer Spieleverfilmung an, er schrieb zuvor beispielsweise das Drehbuch zu Silent Hill und arbeitete ebenfalls mit Quentin Tarantino an Reservoir Dogs und Pulp Fiction zusammen.
Als Produzent springt Samuel Hadida ein, der gemeinsam mit seinem Team Davis Films hinter diversen 'Resident Evil'-Filmen und auch den beiden Adaptionen zu Silent Hill steht. Und auch Solomon Kane (Das Kabinett des Dr. Parnassus) wird seine Finger mit im Spiel haben.....
