Information appeared on Riota’s website that they are looking for people for two new positions. In both cases, it is about managing the departments of film and television set in Los Angeles. The official names of these jobs are Global Head of Live Action TV and Global Head of Live Action Film.
In the description of one of them, you can read that the person employed in this position will be responsible for building a business strategy for the department dealing with the creation of acting productions. In addition, the duties will also include supervising teams working on scenarios for stories embedded in the League of Legends universe and other brands. Both departments are still under construction, so we will probably wait a long time for any details about planned movies and series.
Riot Games has no experience with full-length acting productions, but their short animations introducing new champions and events have always met with positive reception. Considering how rich and diverse the League of Legends universe is, it is hard to believe that we are only now hearing about the plans for filming actors. Time will show whether the studio will be successful in the film and television industry.
