Players want to focus on zombie mode! Paramount intends to make a movie called Duty
After the successful adaptation of "Sonic the Hedgehog", Paramount Pictures is negotiating the development of the "Call of Duty" film project. According to Puck media person Matthew Beroni, the studio plans to obtain the adaptation rights of this evergreen game series and will continue the live adaptation route of games such as Fallout and Minecraft.
The news caused heated discussion among players, and most people strongly called for focus on the zombie mode: "I will be a consultant when shooting a zombie movie!" "If you restore the classic Nazi zombie mode - those characters with Richter Hoffen? Absolutely crazy" "The zombie trilogy movie of "Black Ops" is exciting to think about." This mode has been introduced in 2008's Call of Duty: World of War, requiring players to survive in endless corpse tides and unlock weapons and map areas by killing enemies. The latest version has been launched in 2024's Black Ops 6.
Microsoft Game CEO Phil Spencer talked about the adaptation concept in early 2025, emphasizing that "the game industry itself is successful enough, and there is no need to force film and television adaptation, and attention should be paid to the creative expression space provided by linear media for IP." But he also said that through existing cooperation, "getting confidence that more should be done in the future", but refused to disclose specific project progress.
