- A reliable insider has revealed that Sony is working on a live-action Bloodborne film.
- Details regarding the project are scarce, and they’re still hunting for a director right now.
- This is an insult to fans who have been demanding a sequel/remaster for the game for almost 10 years now.
Bloodborne is arguably one of the most well-known Souls games, not because it’s the highest-selling one, but because of how it’s becoming a running meme in the gaming industry by fans who have been asking for a remaster.
Almost every first-party release from the PlayStation 4 generation has been ported to PC, except for Bloodborne. For nearly a decade, fans have consistently urged Sony to do more with the IP, but according to a new report, the company is looking to expand into the live-action medium instead.
Why it matters: It’s a good thing that Sony has found success in the live-action video game adaptations, but, unfortunately, the gaming giant is more focused on Hollywood than it is on video games.
This report comes from DanielRPK (scoop locked behind a paywall), who is a famous Hollywood insider known for his accurate reports on Movies & TV Shows. According to Daniel, Sony is currently trying to secure a director for the project.
The idea of a Bloodborne movie is thrilling, especially given the rich lore of the Souls games. However, Sony’s neglect of the IP in the gaming world for almost a decade is a disappointment to fans.
Sony’s reluctance to move forward with the Bloodborne IP without Miyazaki‘s involvement is a cause for concern. While Miyazaki’s love for Bloodborne is undeniable, his busy schedule means we may not get to see a new Bloodborne gaming project for years to come.
While an Elden Ring live-action film is currently in the works at A24 Films, the project is not expected to be released until 2027. Given this timeline, it’s likely that the Bloodborne adaptation will follow, possibly in 2028.
Are you excited for a Bloodborne film? Do you think we should’ve got a remaster or a sequel to the game first? Let us know in the comments below or at the official Tech4Gamers Forums.
