Gran Turismo Movie in the Works
Sony is developing a film based off their popular racing video game Gran Turismo, according to a report by engaget.com.
The report claims that Mike de Luca and Dana Brunetti who created the blockbuster movie The Social Network and also the insanely popular Fifty Shades of Grey are working with Sony on the movie.
Sony is perhaps looking to mimic the success of Universal’s The Fast & Furious series which has released six films and is often credited for spawning a new generation of car enthusiasts with the original film in 2001.
The new Gran Turismo 6 game was announced in May and will hit stores at the end of November 2013. The new Playstation 4 will also be launching in the fourth quarter of 2013. Sony is probably hoping to ride the buzz from those two launches into making a big splash in theatres as well.
