Brothers in Arms becomes a TV series

Rilasciato there Gearbox Software starting far in 2005, the series of Brothers in Arms scored the tactical FPS through a title from the intuitive gameplay (but a bit repetitive) and a faithful reconstruction of various battles of the Second World War, but today it seems like a game almost “forgotten by history” compared to classics like Call of Duty e Medal of Honor. That's why today's news seems like a bolt from the blue: Gearbox Software will adapt BiA into a television series, curated by showrunner Scott Rosenbaum (executive producer of Chuck).

Second The Hollywood Reporter, the project will focus on the rescue mission of an American colonel who ended up in the hands of German soldiers, will follow the events both from the American and Germanic point of view and it seems to have been conceived as a "Expansion" of the events told in the videogame series.

The serial is currently in pre-production, with the search for a director and a television distribution.

If we think about it, a destiny singular and ironic for a video game series created to pay homage to another television series, Band of Brothers, born in turn as a spin-off of Save Private Ryan by Steven Spielberg. That favors a possible reboot or resumption of the videogame saga?

Finally, remember that Brothers in Arms will not be the first Gearbox game to reach the big screen: Eli Roth, visionary director of Cabin Fever and Hoster, was in fact hired for one film adaptation of Borderlands.
