Lorenzo di Bonaventura, whose producing credits include the Transformers and G.I. Joe film series, joins the Paramount project alongside CD PROJEKT RED. The game's co-CEO Michal Nowakowski addressed the Deadline report on his own X account, saying the developer holds high expectations for Paramount as a future partner that shares its creative ambitions, and that details will come at the appropriate time.
Separately, CD PROJEKT RED announced a live-action adaptation with Anonymous Content, known for Mr. Robot and The Revenant, in October 2023. Whether that project and the Paramount film are the same has not been clarified.
