Metro revival almost the fourth entry in the Metro series of games based on the novel by Dmitry Glukhovsky, this time taking the form of VR for unprecedented immersion in the Moscow Metro. Born from the mind of a passionate writer, the Metro The series is known for its emotional and thought-provoking storytelling that would work well in other forms of media.
In an interview with Game Rant, Metro writer Dmitry Glukhovsky discussed his work on the series and Metro revival especially, and the possibility of possibility Metro film or television adaptations. Glukhovsky also talked about the experience of writing for a play Metro revival different from writing a story, but similar to writing a picture.
There May Still Be Hope For The Metro 2033 Film
When asked if he is thinking of taking the Metro big screen franchise, Glukhovsky noted that he was trying to secure a deal for the movie rights Metro since 2006. Despite this Metro has seen many successful games and stories since then, the film adaptation has so far been fruitless. That said, Glukhovsky hinted at possible news in this direction, but he could not make it clear.
It was a long journey for me. The first time I came to Hollywood was probably 17 years ago. I was 27 years old and I went there to negotiate the film rights. 17 years later, we are still where we are. The three video games were released, and then three books and many things happen in the world, and there is still no animation project based on this story. I hope so. There's a recent development that I'm not going to let break the law, but you know, in the world of movies and television, you never know. Everything can happen in a short time, completely destroying your hopes and expectations. I'm a little superstitious, so I don't reveal what I'm looking forward to, in different projects as a writer.
Viewers may not believe the movie adaptation of the video game after Borderlands contribution to the film, so maybe a little longer would be best Metrothe case. Glukhovsky said he is committed to following up on anyone involved Metroso fans can at least be sure it's okay Metro the movie will be in good hands.
Writing a game like Metro Awakening is a lot like writing a picture
Glukhovsky says that, as a writer, writing a video game is more like a movie than a novel. Games and movies both need sound effects, actors, scripts, cinematography, and of course an interesting and coherent plot. When writing a story, Glukhovsky says that writers can experiment more with storytelling than with video games or movies, especially when it comes to structure.
I think that writing for a game, to me, is closer to writing for a movie because the story as a whole, when you create the arc and the whole story line, it has to be clear and coherent. In writing a book, you can just improvise, and you may not even know what exactly will happen to the main character, you more or less understand the end of that character, and then what you want. thematic, conveying, right?
But when you're writing a screenplay, you need to make sure you understand that this is the emotional flow you want your character to go through. So I think it's more of an engineer. Writing video games is much closer to that. It has to go through some emotions, right?
Although it wasn't meant to be for the first time, Glukhovsky saw potential in it Metro to be a transmedia machine that can offer decent experiences in various formats. Hopefully, he will have a chance to see that potential, and franchise fans can enjoy Metro movies, comics, or series.
