Ender's Game...the movie!!!!

[Jezrael]

Ender's Game is being made into a major motion picture to be directed by Wolfgang Peterson!

Sadly it won't be for another couple of years as a script is still in the works and Peterson probably has other movies to do in the meantime.

Here's the studio's page on it.

I have only one thing to say to this, w00t!

Sweet!

Hope it gets done right.

Seems like Card is in on most of it...for now. So here's hoping he can help keep the studio on track.

that IS cool ... I liked that book a lot ... I could see lots of drama and acting ... with no real space combat scenes until the last 20m or so.

I liked the book too. I wonder how they will integrate the fantasy game into the movie.

I love Ender's game and the rest of the books in the series.

It's cool that Wolfgang Peterson (of Das Boot fame) is going to direct the upcoming move. Hopefully it won't turn out like Perfect Storm (yuck).

Prior to the press release by Fresco Pictures, I heard a rumor that Ender's Game The Movie was going to be directed by Paul Verhoeven, the directer of Starship Troopers. Could you imagine the buggers as the bug aliens of Klendathu?

Then again, OSC thinks Jake Lloyd is a great actor, and would be an ideal choice to play Ender. Gag.

Verhoeven being involved in any way with this movie would, for me, drop it from "Cool! Gotta see it!" straight down to "I might watch it if it comes on for free on Sci Fi in five years and there isn't anything better on like Walking with Llamas or Exposed: the Best Organized Sock Drawers in Baltimore".
