Ridley Scott verfilmt das Brettspiel

Nach einem Bericht der "Sunday Times", arbeitet 'Hasbro' an einer Verfilmung des Brettspiel Klassikers "Monopoly". Kein geringerer als Ridley Scott ("Gladiator") wird bei diesem Film Regie führen. Das Brettspiel soll durch die Verfilmung für die jungen Leute wieder etwas an Attraktivität gewinnen. Dafür sorgen, sollen unter anderem Scarlett Johansson ("The Prestige") und Kirsten Dunst ("Spider-Man Reihe").

Geplant ist tatsächlich eine Realverfilmung der Spielhandlung. Ridley Scott äusserte sich allerdings noch nicht darüber wie genau das dann aussieht. Er zeigte sich nur begeistert von den Entwürfen der Drehbuchautoren.

Uns erwartet wohl ein sexy Comedy-Thriller so ein Mitarbeiter von Hasbro.

Hmpf, solange da nicht übergroße Würfel duch die Landschaft kullern und da mehr Story drin ist, als es sich anhört, mal abwarten.
Das mit den Sims hab ich auch noch nicht gehört. wall

Lass sie doch. Wird bestimmt lustig das Ganze. Ich kann mir zwar überhaupt nichts darunter vorstellen, aber wenn Scarlett Johansson und Kirsten Dunst da mitspielen, finde ich das doch recht interessant. Und das hier:

Also es war schon erbärmlich Dead or Alive zu verfilmen, obwohl Holly Valance....ich schweife ab...Holly Valance....

Also zum Thema: So eine Scheiße das Ridley Scott seit Alien allgemein keinen so richtigen Burner mehr gebracht hat (und selbst alien fand ich nicht so berauschend 2 war besser CAMERON 4 LIFE) aber sowas ey, wenn das kommt muss sich Eichinger nicht mehr für Wrong Turn und DOA schämen, das ist ja eine absolute Schnapsidee, oder besser, was für Pilze hat der Mann gegessen!

Ridley Scott on Adapting Monopoly

While talking to Ridley Scott about his new action-adventure Robin Hood, starring Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchett, the director told ComingSoon.net more about bringing the board game Monopoly to the big screen.

We asked Scott if the game would be referenced in the movie at all other than the title. "Yes, absolutely," he said. "It's a Hasbro film and they have the game. That was a tough thing to crack in terms of the screenplay because first off, many would want to integrate literally the shaking of the dice and the throwing of the dice into the board. I couldn't really get past that. I wanted to just make a movie about the idea of greed. I told them you know your game can turn your sweetest, dearest aunt into a demon - a nightmare of greed. So that's what we're going to do."

We also asked, given the current economic situation, whether the project will have a tougher look at the real estate market. "Completely. It's a blood bath. It was really bad behavior. It's [going to be] a comedy," Scott added.

The film is set up at Universal Pictures with a script by Pamela Pettler. A start date has not been announced.

Producer/author Frank Beddor previously revealed that the story he pitched for the movie featured a "comedic, lovable loser who lives in Manhattan and works at a real estate company and he's not very good at his job but he's great at playing Monopoly. And the world record for playing is 70 straight days – over 1,600 hours – and he wanted to try to convince his friends to help him break that world record. They think he is crazy. They kid him about this girl and they're playing the game and there's this big fight. And he's holding a Chance card and after they've left he says, 'Damn, I wanted to use that Chance card,' and he throws it down. He falls asleep and then he wakes up in the morning and he's holding the Chance card, and he thinks, 'That's odd.'

"He's all groggy and he goes down to buy some coffee and he reaches into his pocket and all he has is Monopoly money. All this Monopoly money pours out. He's confused and embarrassed and the girl reaches across the counter and says, 'That's OK.' And she gives him change in Monopoly money. He walks outside and he's in this very vibrant place, Monopoly City, and he's just come out of a Chance Shop. As it goes on, he takes on the evil Parker Brothers in the game of Monolopy."

We'll have to see how much of that story remains in Pettler's screenplay.

Writers Hired for Ridley Scott's Monopoly

Heat Vision reports that Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski have been hired to write the script for director Ridley Scott's big screen adaptation of Hasbro's Monopoly.

Alexander and Karaszewski's credits include Ed Wood, The People vs. Larry Flynt and the recent 1408.

While the project is reportedly no longer at Universal Pictures, producers Bennett Schneir and Brian Goldner are continuing to develop the movie. Scott is also producing.

Goldner previously said that they are "developing a great story. It's a very fun take. Ridley is still the perfect creative steward, because he creates these great, fictionalized worlds...Suffice it to say, it's a story about a family with a history, and we're projecting that into current times. But it's not 'Wall Street'. It's more about property ownership and of the play-pattern of the game."

Harbro is funding the development of the project.
