  1. Sega making non-Sonic films/TV shows of its videogame IPs

    12 December 2014 - 07:00 AM

    Wanna see the likes of Altered Beast, Rise of Nightmares, Streets of Rage, Shinobi, and Crazy Taxi at your closest silver screen or on your television set and not remakes/ports of existing games to modern consoles or new installments? If so, rejoice because Sega's got you covered! :v:

    SEGA Hires Evan Cholfin to Adapt Its Video Games for Films and TV

    SEGA has tapped former Break Media executive editor Evan Cholfin to help turn its video games into movies.

    According to Variety, Cholfin is now head of development and production at Stories International, a production company started by SEGA and ad agency Hakuhodo DY Group in 2011. Cholfin has previously worked in development for David Fincher, Steven Zaillian, and CAA.

    What SEGA game titles are in line to get the silver screen treatment? So far, Stories has decided to start with Altered Beast, Rise of Nightmares, Streets of Rage, Shinobi, and Crazy Taxi as English-language live action and animated spinoffs. Virtua Fighter and Golden Axe have also been mentioned.

    Cholfin's hire is part of SEGA's initiative to expand Stories and move into filmmaking. A deal with All Nippon Entertainment Works will also help Stories gain access to 20 Japanese rights holders who own movies, books, TV shows, and manga titles.
