- NEED FOR SPEED
Variety says that Electronic Arts (EA) has hired John Gatins
(Real Steel) to develop a pitch for a movie based on the video game series
"Need for Speed."
Warner Bros., Sony and Paramount are said to be interested
with Paramount being the frontrunner. Universal Pictures is not in talks for
the property, given that it already has "The Fast and the Furious"
franchise.
"Need for Speed" is the most successful racing
video game series in the world, and one of the most successful video game
franchises of all time. Over 100 million copies of games in the "Need for
Speed" series have been sold.
The last game in the franchise, Need for Speed: The Run, was
released on November 15, 2011 and features the voices of Sean Faris and the voluptuous
Christina Hendricks.
