\nNetflix’s live-action Gears of War movie is now one step closer to becoming a reality following the news Dune and Doctor Strange screenwriter Jon Spaihts has been hired to handle the script.\n<\/p>\n

\nNetflix announced<\/a> it had acquired the rights to adapt Gear of War into movie last November, following earlier unsuccessful attempts by

\nNetflix, however, has specifically described its version as an adaptation of the Gears of War “video game saga”, suggesting it’ll be more faithful to the source material than Universal’s stalled effort – and the streaming service has now announced<\/a> it’ll be down to writer Jon Spaihts, whose Dune screenplay was nominated for an Oscar, to conjure a script into being.\n<\/p>\n
