New director for BIOSHOCK adaptation!



28 Weeks Later director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo is in talks to go behind the cameras for the Bioshock adaptation for Universal Pictures. Pirates of the Carribean director Gore Verbinski was originally set to direct, but had to bail out when the estimated budget rose upwards to $160-million, forcing Universal to halt development. Gore will remain on the project as producer via his Blind Wink Productions label.

Based on the hit game, which told the story of a survivor of a plane crash named Jack, who discovers a once Utopian underwater city called Rapture, where he must survive the attacks of mutated beings, mechanical drones, and the dark forces that populate it.
