A major motion picture adaptation of Twisted Metal has been allegedly greenlit by Sony Pictures.
According to reports, Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance co-director Brian Taylor was asked to write and direct the live action film based on David Jaffe’s car combat racer. If true, this would be the first film Taylor has ever directed solo. Ghost Rider producers Avi and Ari Arad are also reportedly involved.
The reports also claim that the film will follow the storyline of the game, featuring Sweet Tooth and Doll Face as the main characters.
A SCEA representative has confirmed that there have been discussions regarding a Twisted Metal project with Sony Pictures, but would not comment on any other details.
