Counter-Strike Movie Deal Signed

Posted by Zonk on from the tango-down! dept.

jujubees writes "Games to movies, movies to games -- it's not an unfamiliar trend anymore, and today the most popular online shooter is next in line. Counter-Strike has been picked up by German director Uwe Boll (known, or hated, for game-to-movie adaptations like the recent Alone in the Dark, upcoming Bloodrayne, etc.). Boll is currently working on the script, which will remain true to the spirit of the game. While the studio is debating whether to use real actors or not, there has been interest from Hollywood actors Ben Affleck and Colin Farrell. "
