Gran Turismo Movie From District 9 Director Gets Release Date, Plot Synopsis

· February 5, 2025 · Comments off

GameSpot can confirm the earlier report that District 9 director Neill Blomkamp will be adapting Sony’s Gran Turismo racing game series into a movie, due to arrive August 11, 2023. It was previously reported that this project might be a TV series, but that has turned out to not be the case.

The plot synopsis for the film reads, “Based on a true story, the film is the ultimate wish fulfillment tale of a teenage Gran Turismo player whose gaming skills won a series of Nissan competitions to become an actual professional race car driver.” While it might seem strange to adapt a video game and not use its plot, Gran Turismo doesn’t have a plot. It’s a racing game. At least the game is involved, though, unlike 2014’s Need for Speed.

John Cena To Star In Looney Tunes Animated Hybrid Film

· January 18, 2025 · Comments off

John Cena is set to star in a film featuring Looney Tunes characters adapting a 1990 New Yorker humor article titled “Coyote v. Acme.” Deadline was first to report about the upcoming project, which is expected to be a hybrid of animation and live-action.

In the original New Yorker piece, a lawyer representing Wile E. Coyote sues the Acme Company for “85 separate occasions…[in which] certain products did cause him bodily injury due to defects in manufacture or improper cautionary labelling… Mr. Coyote is self-employed and thus not eligible for Workmen’s Compensation.” Dave Green (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows) will direct a screenplay from Samy Butch (Crown Prince)–though IMDb lists James Gunn as co-writer–in what is sure to be a fun and tongue-in-cheek film. No production start date or other cast information has yet been announced. It’s unclear if Cena will be playing or voicing an animated character.
