Scott Derrickson to Direct Deus Ex Feature From Iconic Video Game

CBS Films announced today that Scott Derrickson (Sinister, The Exorcism of Emily Rose) will direct the screen adaptation of the iconic Square Enix video game Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Derrickson will also write the screenplay for the film with C. Robert Cargill (Sinister). Roy Lee and Adrian Askarieh are attached to produce the film with John P. Middleton serving as Executive Producer.

Set in the near future, when dramatic advances in science, specifically human augmentation, have triggered a technological renaissance, Deus Ex: Human Revolution follows Adam Jensen, an ex-SWAT security specialist who must embrace mechanical augments in order to unravel a global conspiracy.

"Deus Ex is a phenomenal cyberpunk game with soul and intelligence, said Derrickson, who continued, By combining amazing action and tension with big, philosophical ideas, Deus Ex is smart, ballsy, and will make one hell of a movie. Cargill and I can't wait to bring it to the big screen."

The Deus Ex franchise was originally introduced in June 2000. Its latest entry, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, launched to universal acclaim in 2011, ranking #1 across global sales charts and earning over 100 industry awards. Developed by Eidos-Montréal and published by Square Enix, Deus Ex: Human Revolution will serve as the primary template for the film.

Executive Vice President of Production Maria Faillace and Creative Executive Alex Ginno are overseeing the project for CBS Films.

Scott Derrickson and C. Robert Cargill are represented by WME and managed by Brillstein Entertainment Partners. Their legal is handled by Jackoway, Tyerman, Wertheimer, Austen, Mandelbaum, Morris & Klein.

Like Sinister, don't know about this though...

hope it's good. doubt it though:P

I hope they make it good.

interesting, the game has lots of fabric to cut from. As long as they find a good director everything will be fine but game movies always end up with the worst of the worst like Uwe Boll.

as a director Scott Derrickson is pretty good. He directed The Day the Earth Stood Still and The Exorcism of Emily Rose which were pretty good films.

The movie has potential to be a really good movie. It's obvious that they are taking it seriously.

Love the game. If the quality is equal to video game movies such as Resident Evil I will be happy. And you are all beggers when it comes to video game movies so don't act jaded we must take what we can get even if its not good.

They better get an unknown actor to play Adam Jensen. Blazerdt47

Jensen was so cool in Deus Ex HR I have no idea who they should get to play him.

Hope it has some damn good special effects to do the series justice.

Because I don't need Leonardo DiCaprio or Brad Pitt acting out characters from my favorite games. That takes away the immersion.

Will it star Takeshi Kitano as Tong Si Hung? Anyway, back in July I compiled my dream team to direct and to star in Deus Ex movie. It went like this: Director: Nicolas Winding Refn Starring: Adam Jensen - Tom Hardy David Sarif - Daniel Day Lewis Bill Taggart - Stellan Skarsgard Hugh Darrow - Jeff Bridges Zhao Yun Ru - Bjork Megan Reed - Alison Lohman / Scarlett Johansson Malik - Audrey Tatou Frank Pritchard - Robert Carlyle Eliza Cassan - Zooey Deschanel Tong Si Hung - Takeshi Kitano But anyway, I don't have high hopes, Sinister is the only decently-rated movie by this director who is only known for "genre movies" so far, and there hasn't been any even "average" (by movie standards) video game adaptation so far, so it's understandable I'm cautious about this...Salt_The_Fries

I thought Prince of Persia was pretty good.:)

I don't think I could ever fully enjoy the movie if Elias Toufexis and Stephen Shellen didn't reprise their roles.

Why wouldn't they adapt Deus Ex 1? It has a better plot IMO and is obviously the best and most beloved game in the franchise. Plus it is old enough that they could really take the art in a lot of directions. With human revoluton I feel like they have to go with a similar ghost in the shell/blade runner aesthetic

Deus Ex, without choice, is not Deus Ex.

It's just another conspiracy story.
