- HASBRO TOY FILM ADPATIONS
Three more Hasbro properties are headed to the big screen as
The LA Times reports that Emmett/Furla Films has signed a deal that will give
them the film rights to Action Man, Hungry Hungry Hippos and the long-gestating
Monopoly.
Monopoly, which already has a screenplay by Scott Alexander
and Larry Karaszewski, hopes to shoot sometime next year with Ridley Scott, who
was formerly attached as a director, now producing.
Hungry Hungry Hippos is planning to go the animated route
while plans for Action Man remain unspecified.
The family-friendly nature of all three properties will
expand the focus of Emmett/Furla's output, which, recently, has been on action
thrillers like End of Watch and upcoming projects like Motor City and The Tomb.
