Now it has caught so well as Jerry Bruckheimer. The producer, for atrocities such as "Pirates of the Caribbean," "Con Air" or "Bad Boys" is known, the English director Mike Newell makes a big-screen adaptation of the PC game "Prince of Persia" going on. Sir Ben Kingsley is to play (again) not too fine, the bad guy. The pixel-Prince is represented by La Jake Gyllenhaal, one of the young stars of Hollywood.
Large footprints has chosen Bruckheimer. Uwe Boll, affectionately known as German answer to Ed Wood , it has been doing this years ago as director, producer and scriptwriter: you buy cheap licenses from computer games, tinker a story from buy, just before close unemployed asterisk (Jason Stratham, Tara Reid and Ben Kinsley take forever) and bring it called a film in the cinemas.
that the concept "computer games for wide audiences" financially rises was already seen in Tomb Raider (2001): The stupid story, peppered with the Popcorn Adult Mrs Jolie, loveless special effects and plain supporting cast, let it ring the box office. In the U.S. alone played the saga of the estimated hunter Lara Croft on the opening weekend of half the production costs back. After five months there were more than 274 million U.S. dollars . Add to that second window as DVD and video, and merchandising.
For the coming years, other film adaptations of computer games are planned: Halo, World of Warcraft or Tekken are already in work.
good starting point for Jerry Bruckheimer. Because the name "Bruckheimer" stands for testosterone-charged action cinema. Each approach is a storyline that is beside the point.
And if it goes wrong: Pirates of the Caribbean 4 is probably already in the pipeline ...
