Watch Dogs, Ubisoft’s open-world sci-fi hacker series, is reportedly the latest in an ever-growing list of video games to get the live-action movie treatment, with Talk to Me actor Sophie Wilde said to be in talks to star.
That’s according to Deadline, which reports the Watch Dogs movie will be helmed by director Mathieu Turi (who’s currently adapting A Plague Tale for television), working from a screenplay by Christie LeBlanc – the writer behind Netflix’s 2021 French sci-fi thriller Oxygen.
The Watch Dogs movie is in development at New Regency Productions but, beyond word of Talk to Me actor Sophie Wilde’s potential involvement and the rather obvious note from Deadline that it’ll be “set within the universe of Ubisoft’s” series, details are limited.
