For the past 15 years, the Gears of War film has been stuck in developmental hell, ever since New Line Cinema first purchased the rights in 2007. However, it seems like the film adaptation will receive new life with Netflix taking over its development.
At the moment, not much is known about the new projects at the streaming platform, as Netflix is yet to reveal any actors or directors being part of Gears of War. However, the streaming platform has maintained that they might tell more stories after the film and animated series as well.
The original Gears of War revolved around Marcus Fenix, a member of the Coalition of Ordered Governments, who led a team of brave soldiers in an attempt to save humanity by defeating the Locust Horde. Following the release of the first title, the franchise spawned four more sequels and several other spinoff titles.
