เดิมทีเคยมีข่าวพูดๆกันเอง ว่ากิลเลอโม เดลโทโร น่าจะได้มาเป็นผกก.เรื่องนี้(ผลงานเด่นๆ Pan's Labyrinth Hellboy1+2 และจะได้กำกับHobbitในปี2010)
เพราะความสามารถใน้ด้านArtDirectionและVFXของเค้าจากงานที่ผ่านๆมานั้นน่าจะเหมาะกับ
หนังSci-Fiที่มีArtในเกมที่ยอดเยี่ยมเกมนึงของวงการเลย
แต่มาวันนี้มีการประกาศสร้างหนังเป็นที่เรียบร้อยแล้ว แฟนๆเกมไม่ต้องเสียใจไป เพราะเราจะได้ผกก.คนเก่ง
ระดับพระกาฬมาลงมือกำกับและอำนวยการสร้างด้วยตัวเอง นั่นก็คืออูเว... เอ้ย ไม่ใช่ Gore Verbinskiนั่นเอง
ผกก.หนังไตรภาคชื่อดังPirate of the Caribbean Seaนั่นเอง ส่วนถ้าคุณสงสัยว่าเค้าจะกำกับหนังโทนสยองๆได้มั้ย
ก็ขอรับประกันความมั่นใจ ด้วยผลงานthe Ringฉบับรีเมคฮอลลีวูดเป็นประกันได้อีกเรื่องนึง(มันก็ถือว่าดีน่ะแหละ)
เดี๋ยวมาแปลเพิ่มเติมนะ หาข้อมูลประกอบก่อน
- Gore Verbinski จะควบ2ตำแหน่ง ผกก.และอำนวยการสร้าง
- Universal จะเป็นผู้ผลิต
- กำลังเจรจา John Logan เพื่อรับหน้าที่เขียนบท เคยสร้างชื่อจากการได้เข้าชิงออสการ์จากเรื่อง Gladiator, The Aviator and Sweeney Todd

Press Release
BioShock Heads to Hollywood
Universal Pictures to develop movie based on hit video game from 2K Games
Gore Verbinski, Director of Pirates of the Caribbean, to Direct/Produce
New York, NY – May 9, 2008 – 2K Games announced today that it has reached an agreement for BioShock®, the universally acclaimed smash-hit video game, to be developed as a feature film by Universal Pictures. 2K Games, whose 2K Boston and 2K Australia studios developed BioShock, is a video game publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO).
The prospect of bringing this blockbuster game to life has attracted not only a major studio, but top Hollywood talent. Gore Verbinski, director of the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy, is slated to direct and produce the BioShock movie. John Logan, Academy Award-nominated writer of Gladiator, The Aviator and Sweeney Todd, is in talks to do the screenplay.
The expected release date and terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
An original property developed by 2K Games, BioShock is one of the most successful new interactive entertainment franchises to launch in recent years. A critical and consumer hit, BioShock has sold more than 2 million units worldwide since its release in August 2007. A sequel to the game, BioShock 2, is planned for a release in 2009.
"We are excited that 2K Games' vision for BioShock will be carried forward in a new medium," said Strauss Zelnick, Chairman of Take-Two. "BioShock has been hailed as one of the most highly cinematic and richly plotted titles in interactive entertainment, making it extremely well-suited to film. In partnering with Universal and Gore Verbinski, we have assembled a team that respects the uniqueness of BioShock and will translate it into a powerful movie experience."
Mr. Zelnick added, "Our ability to attract a major studio and unparalleled creative team speaks volumes about the strength of our BioShock franchise. It also demonstrates how Take-Two is delivering value based on our strategy of creating and owning our industry's most powerful intellectual property."
Christoph Hartmann, President of 2K Games, noted, "BioShock fans appreciate the depth and complexity of the game, and our partnership with Gore Verbinski will introduce the world of Rapture to an even wider audience. In addition to his impressive body of work, Gore is an avid video gamer and true fan of BioShock. That was extremely important to us in deciding to move forward with this project."
BioShock: Triumph of the Imagination
Considered to be one the finest games in the history of interactive entertainment, BioShock unfolds as a deep and exciting adventure. Barely surviving a plane crash, the player lands in icy uncharted waters and discovers an undersea city called Rapture, a failed utopia whose citizens had embraced genetic engineering before the city descended into pure anarchy. Power and greed have run amok and the city has succumbed to civil war. It is a gripping game that forces the player to make complex moral choices. Fans have embraced BioShock's mysterious world filled with powerful technology and fascinating characters. BioShock is also renowned for its rich visual detail depicting a gorgeous Art Deco world set deep beneath the sea.
BioShock has earned some of the highest ratings and strongest accolades in video game history. It is one of the best-rated titles for Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, with a MetaCritic rating of 96. Numerous organizations bestowed "Game of the Year" status on BioShock in 2007, including The Associated Press, the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA), Game Informer, Spike TV's Video Game Awards, G4's X-Play, Amazon.com, The Houston Chronicle and Paste Magazine. Additionally, BioShock ranked among the top 10 titles on many other "Best of 2007" award lists, including The New York Times, Time Magazine and Maxim. BioShock was internally developed by 2K Boston and 2K Australia and is owned by the 2K Games label of Take-Two Interactive Software.
