Film Split: Initial Director and Lead Actor Announced
Hey there, let's dive into some exciting news about the upcoming adaptation of Hazelight Studios' hit co-op game, Split Fiction. This time around, we've got some juicy details on who's going to be steering and starring in this memorable journey!
Jon M. Chu, known for his work on the blockbuster musical Wicked, has signed on to direct the film. On the other hand, we have the captivating Sydney Sweeney (Euphoria, Madame Web) jumping on board as the leading lady. According to reliable sources, Sweeney's role in the film remains a mystery for now, with whispers suggesting she could bring Mio or Zoe to life, but nothing is set in stone as of yet.
Interestingly, the script for this film will be penned by Rhett Reese, who has a track record of shows like Deadpool and Wolverine, along with a couple of other unfamiliar faces—Josef Fares and Sebastian Johansson, if you care to dig deeper.
Now, here's where things get a bit juicy. Gal Gadot is rumored to be in the running for the character of Mio due to her striking resemblance and acting style that seems to fit the role to a T. Yet, these are all speculations for now, as no official cast members have been announced apart from our leading lady, Sydney Sweeney.
As for the timing of this film, both Sweeney and Chu have plenty on their plates. Sweeney is currently shooting another season of Euphoria and will star in the Gundam movie, while Chu has Wicked: For Good lined up for 2023, and Oh, the Places You'll Go! slated for 2028. So, while we can't wait to see Split Fiction on the big screen, it might be a bit of a wait.
Stay tuned for updates on your favorite franchises, including Marvel, Star Wars, Star Trek, DC, and Doctor Who! Happy reading, folks!
