Microsoft makes tentative 'Halo' film deal

 

Microsoft and the Creative Artists Agency have reached a tentative agreement with Universal and Fox for the film rights to the Xbox video game Halo.

 

The deal was reportedly a major step down for Microsoft from its initial demands for a $10 million upfront fee and 15 percent of the studio's first-dollar box-office gross receipts, the New York Times reported Friday. The company had also sought a large amount of creative control, insisting on approval over the cast and director and a budget reaching at least $75 million, not including the fees for the actors and director.

 

The deal with Universal and Fox would award Microsoft no more than $5 million for the film rights and only 10 percent of the first-dollar box-office gross receipts, the Times said. Universal would oversee production and get domestic distribution rights, while Fox would get the foreign rights and have a say in production.

 

Negotiations were expected to continue Friday.

 

 

The script is by 28 Days Later screenwriter Alex Garland, who was paid $1 million by Microsoft to write an adaptation that meets the approval of its executives and the game's creators at subsidiary Bungie Studios.

 

Microsoft also brought in former Columbia Pictures president Peter Schlessel to help it handle the project and serve as a producer in some capacity.

Εάν ακολουθήσουν την υπόθεση του παιχνιδιού, η ταινία έχει όλα τα φόντα να γίνει μ@λ@κιάρα/ splatter πρώτης τάξεως. Και επειδή είναι Hollywood, να δείτε που θα το κάνουν!!

Υπάρχει η φήμη ότι μπορεί να το γυρίσει ο Ridley Scott (Alien, Blade Runner, Gladiator κλπ), οπότε ίσως βγει κάτι καλό αυτή τη φορά.
