Paramount Pictures is developing a live-action film based on CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 video game franchise. The project will be produced by Lorenzo di Bonaventura, who has previously worked on the Transformers film series. Details regarding the film's premiere date have not yet been released.
This film adaptation represents a further expansion of the Cyberpunk franchise. The Cyberpunk 2077 game has sold over 40 million copies since its launch. Additionally, a successful Netflix anime adaptation is currently in its second season, and a game sequel, 'Cyberpunk 2', is in development with 184 staff members.
Michał Nowakowski, joint-CEO of CD Projekt Red, stated that the company is enthusiastic about Paramount as a partner who shares their creative ambitions for the Cyberpunk franchise. He indicated that more details would be shared at a later time.
The announcement follows the completion of the Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery merger under the Skydance name. Paramount is also involved in other video game adaptations, including a Call of Duty film slated for 2028 and a Street Fighter movie set to debut on October 16th.
