The Big Picture Netflix's Gears of War adaptation is one of the most eagerly anticipated projects on the streamer's slate, and the good news for fans of the franchise is that Netflix's Head of Film, Scott Stuber, has a personal stake in the success of the project, as he revealed while speaking with Collider's Steve Weintraub at the grand reopening of the American Cinematheque at The Egyptian Theatre Hollywood.
The film has tapped Dune writer Jon Spaihts to pen the screenplay, while Bautista—who worked alongside Spaihts on Dune—has pitched himself for the role of Marcus Fenix, and has been desperate to take on the role, having already lent his likeness to the character in the video games themselves. Stuber explained:
When asked if they had scripts yet for Gears of War and their upcoming BioShock adaptation, Stuber revealed "We haven't even got them," Before going on to say, "We've done long treatments. here's a lot of people that we wanna make sure feel good. Inevitably, when you're making those, first and foremost, you gotta make sure the fan base is good, right? So you're working with the creators, you're working with the teams who make the games.
