With the live action Tekken movie going into production in February 2008, Variety reveals through an interview with Dwight Little that the Anacondas 2 and Free Willy 2 director will helm the upcoming adaptation of Namco Bandai’s popular fighting franchise.
“The film plays out as a science fiction story set in the near future, about a rebel who rises up against the Tekken Corp. to seize freedom for his people,” he explained to Variety. “It’s a gladiator story, but the video game has a complicated enough storyline that it provides the template for a martial arts spectacular.”
The movie’s script has been written by Alan McElroy (Left Behind, Spawn, Halloween 4), so set your expectations low. Very, very low.
