Movie adaptations of video games have a notoriously poor record. From Super Mario Bros. to Resident Evil, Doom to Max Payne, there's yet to be a movie adaptation to be fully embraced by fans and critics alike.
Which is why you have to admire the confidence Larry Kasanoff, the producer of the big screen adaptation of Tetris. Not only are they planning to make one Tetris movie, they're actually planning a trilogy.
To the surprise of many, it was announced all the way back in 2014 that Hollywood was going to try and turn the classic game into movie. While all has been quiet since then, Empire spoke with Kasanoff recently and he confirmed they're working on making it a Sci-Fi trilogy.
"This isn’t us splitting the last one of our eight movies in two to wring blood out of the stone. It’s just a big story." Kasanoff said.
As to what that story might entail he didn't reveal much but he did rule at least one idea of what a Tetris movie might look like.
"We’re not going to have blocks with feet running around the movie,” he told Empire, "but it’s great that people think so. It sets the bar rather low!”
