It looks like the popular video game Fortnite may be getting a movie adaptation, and the director reportedly in talks to helm the project is none other than Zack Snyder. Snyder is best known for directing films such as 300, Watchmen, Man of Steel, and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
According to reports, Snyder has been in talks with Epic Games, the creators of Fortnite, to potentially direct a feature film based on the popular battle royale game. The film would be produced by Epic Games and distributed by Universal Pictures.
Fortnite has become one of the most popular video games in recent years, with more than 350 million players worldwide. It has also become a cultural phenomenon, with many celebrities and athletes playing the game and streaming it on Twitch.
If Snyder does take on the project, it would be his first feature film since 2017’s Justice League. Snyder was originally set to direct the film, but he stepped down due to a family tragedy. Since then, he has been involved in producing and directing several short films and documentaries.
Snyder is no stranger to adapting popular properties for the big screen. He previously directed the film adaptation of the comic book series 300 and the 2009 adaptation of Alan Moore’s graphic novel Watchmen. He also directed the 2013 Superman reboot Man of Steel and its 2016 sequel Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
It remains to be seen if Snyder will take on the Fortnite project, but if he does, it could be an exciting addition to his already impressive filmography. Fans of Snyder’s work will be eagerly awaiting more news about this potential adaptation.
