Let's Talk About Sydney Sweeney's Video Game Adaptation
Actor Sydney Sweeney to Star in Video Game Adaptation Production - Actor Sydney Sweeney stars in the movie adaptation of a popular video game
Hey there! Let's dish on some juicy news about Sydney Sweeney, the 27-year-old actress known for her roles in shows like "Falling in Love," "Euphoria," and "The White Lotus."
She's got a big project coming up – an adaptation of the video game "Split Fiction"! According to whispers from "Variety" and "The Hollywood Reporter," this cooperative game released in March by Electronic Arts and Hazelight Studios is getting a silver screen treatment by director Jon M. Chu, known for "Wicked." The specific role for Sydney isn't clear yet, but we'll keep you posted.
In "Split Fiction," players control Zoe and Mio, two authors with contrasting interests in science fiction and fantasy. They join a publishing house, but things go awry when the CEO wants to steal their ideas. Much like the game, the adaptation can only be experienced with a partner.
Now, for a bit more deets, Sydney is even stepping up as an executive producer for this movie. The screenplay is being penned by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick, who you might know from their work on the "Deadpool" films. Exciting, huh?
Fun fact: A few days ago, there was chatter that Sydney would produce an adaptation of Sega's racing game "Out Run." However, she won't be appearing on screen for this one, with Michael Bay at the helm instead.
Stay tuned for updates on this adrenaline-pumping adaptation of "Split Fiction"! 🎮🌟📽️
