Although we are unlikely to see the continuation of the game about the adventures of a motorcyclist during the zombie apocalypse, Sony does not abandon the brand. Work is underway on the film adaptation of the title.
According to the Deadline website, Sony has already started gathering a team to work on the film. The script is to be written by Sheldon Turner, whose CV includes, among others X-Men: First Class . For now, it is not known who will direct the picture. According to current reports, the main candidate to play the protagonist – Deacon St. John – is Sam Heughan. According to sources, the project is described as a Western-like “love letter” for motorbike movies.
Days Gone is not the only Sony brand to be screened. Next year, a series based on The Last of Us series will debut on HBO Max , Netflix is working on its adaptation of the Horizon series , and Amazon is preparing a production set in the world of God of War . It is also worth recalling that this year the film version of Uncharted with Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg was released.
Days Gone debuted as an exclusive title on PlayStation 4 in 2019 . A little later, it also found its way to personal computers. The action takes place one year after the outbreak of the zombie apocalypse. The main character is a former member of a motorcycle gang trying to survive in this new ruthless world.
