The Ghost of Tsushima Movie is Currently “in Heavy Development”

According to comments by director Chad Stahelski in a recent interview with ComicBookMovie, the upcoming Ghost of Tsushima movie is currently “in heavy development.” The director stated that the movie will replicate the game’s visuals and aesthetic and that he appreciates the game’s story, and that the story and characters are things he doesn’t want to lose in any way for the movie. Ghost of Tsushima is available now for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.Relevant snippets of the interview:“That’s something we’re in heavy development on. I love the property. The game’s story of Jin Sakai, and it being what I would say is the most anti-samurai samurai movie out there because of the storylines and thematics in it. The journey that Jin Sakai goes through from his transition or his choices of who to become and what the people need him to become and what he is honourbound to do and he what needs to become is so interesting to me. The story and the characters in the story are definitely something I don’t want to lose in any way.“It’s [also] the visuals I want to keep. It’s just, how do I pack that much information into a feature that can go on to other features or a TV project or platform for that? The trick is not, ‘do we have great material?’ We know we have great material. It’s how to make it palpable in any platform, you know, ‘how do we make a great two, two and a half hour movie out of this?’ Make it satisfying and leave it open to expand further from there. That’s the real challenge, is how to take so much [that’s] great and get it down to a watchable level.”
