Hi Bryan Here….

Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Odd Lot Entertainment’s Gigi Pritzker have come together and purchased the rights to the hit classic arcade game to bring  it to the silver screen.  They are currently looking for a writer to pen a script which might be more difficult than the norm, because as we all know, the Space Invaders game has no backstory or rhyme of reason.  It’s just a game of shooting Invaders from Space.

It will be interesting to see  what kind of world is created for this adaptation.  What the invaders will look like and how close it will come to the actual game.  This could be a lot of fun if done right.  I’d like to see Neil Marshall or Neill Blomkamp take this project on.  Or even Danny Boyle.  Can’t wait to see who will be writing and directing this.

Your thoughts?
