Warner Bros pictures have picked-up the rights to create a game based on the games franchise, it was widely reported today. The deal, in the closing stages at the moment, will see a film put into production within the next fifteen months, or the rights simply revert back to id Software’s property.

The film will apparently be set on Mars, and feature all the usual terrifying hell-spawn nasties. In contrast with the provocative and controversial violence featured in the game, Doom will aim for a PG-13 (US rating) certificate upon release.

The film will apparently be tied in with the release of Doom III, thus providing interest for both releases.

    I wonder who will play the Doom guy. Bruce Willis?

    Bruce would be ideal, though perhaps rather expensive. I'm not sure whether this film is big-budget or not, though it certainly deserves to be.
