Exorcism director behind Deus Ex movie

I reckon the story would lend itself well to the big screen, it would just need to be done right. Otherwise the whole thing will fall apart like so many game adaptations.Regardless of the outcome, Elias Toufexis and Stephen Shellen should reprise their roles (as Adam Jensen and David Sarif, respectively) in the film.Their voices are so distinctive that anyone else voicing their characters - regardless of the medium - would just not be doing them justice.And they both look similar to their characters...And they're both accomplished Hollywood actors...They'd also have direct input to the direction of their characters as they'd probably have more of an idea about how their character would behave etc.To me it seems logical. And awesome.

Deus Ex is all about epic choices and nearly endless customization. Turning it into a linear movie is counter intuitive and more than a little disappointing. Stay honest to the creators intention.

Make new films instead of game-to-film adaptations - the power of Christ compels you!

Can't Hollywood think up their own original IP? They have to steal from video games over and over again and ruin them?? CTFO!!

Please don't make it an action film. No shootouts, for the love of god.  Shooting just takes up time that could be used to tell more of the brilliant story, and show more of the rich world.

really??? they are actually going to do a movie of that story? It's got nothing of interest. Might as well do a movie of the original Deus Ex, that I would pay to see.

As Emily Rose and Sinister are NOTHING like Deus Ex (even the godawful Human Revolution), I find this article severely lacking.  The truth is that this movie will be directed by the man who gave us the remake of The Day The Earth Stood Still.

Now this would be one of the few games that would indeed make a good movie...Reason being ONLY because it has such a well-devised story.

I never asked for this

Of all those movies listed as credentials, my favorite is probably Sinister. But then again, I didn't particularly like any of the others. Could've been better. Could've been worse. If other game-based movies are anything to go by, this'll probably sit in the oven long enough that it'll go through several directors.

I'll get excited when they make a movie out of the FIRST game... you know, the one actually good Deus Ex game... The HR hype machine and bought off reviews are what made HR 'good.' When it was ok, I mean it's enjoyable.  

But as good as the first?  No, a far cry from the first.... So yeah, I only hope this movie is awesome so I can see JC Denton on the big screen!  Of course, probably 3 or 4 years after this movie comes out....

Deus Ex deserves better.

That line up of talent isn't really inspiring confidence. It would be really interesting to see what a Ridley Scott or Christopher Nolan could do with Deus Ex. After seeing Skyfall Sam Mendes also comes to mind.

if this guy does his job well and they manage to make a decent script based on the game and also bring in some good actors(imagine kineau reeves as adam, I  think his style in matrix is a lot like adam!)it will be a great movie.

this game had some great philosophical ideas behind its story, some interesting characters, had a stunning cyberpunk artistic direction(one of the best in gaming history IMO) and a terrific soundtrack and if they can build the movie on top of all this I would be one happy fan!

I just hope that the Deus Ex movie will be scored by Michael Mcann. Because otherwise it's a lost cause...

It should've been Uwe Bol, he is the master

I'm not a fan of his movies, but I do really like that quote he gave about the game. Seems like he respects it. 

I never asked for this...

This seems like a horrible idea.

i would have been happier if it said 'CHRISTOPHER NOLAN'

Ew why

Why don't they just burn millions of dollars in a big pit and save us all the trouble?

I loves me the Deus Ex universe but I don't have high hopes especially if this is the guy whose going to help write and direct it. I feel as though they'll gloss over alot and just try and turn it into a cheesy action movie. Of course this is just speculation and it could turn out to be good.

Deus Ex is awesome because of the sandbox freedom... a movie is only one way.  however this could be cool... you never know.

I don't know about this. The Deus Ex name means a lot to me as a gamer, I'm afraid a movie will ruin it.

The Deus Ex universe is so rich with storytelling, I don't think a movie will do it justice. :(

Honestly, just get Ridley Scott.  While he essentially took Alien and remade it in Prometheus (questions were not answered as they advertise) he can take Blade Runner, change it a little, and then we can get a cool Deus Ex movie.  I don't get why they have horror movie writers/director working on this movie and not people involved in dramas.
