'Dungeons and Dragons' Movie Confirmed: Film In The Works With 'Endless Creative Possibilities' Says Warner Bros.

Good news for RPG Gamers and movie watchers! A movie based on the widely popular "Dungeons & Dragons" is going to be made.

According to Variety, the movie was put in the works after a 10-month trial period as to who should own the rights to the film. 

Warner Bros., Hasbro's Allspark Pictures, and Sweetpea Entertainment had come to an agreement, which led to the development of the movie.

Variety reports that Hasbro's Brian Goldner and Stephen Davis, with Sweetpea Entertainment's Courtney Solomon, Allan Zeman and Roy Lee ("Lego"), are producing the film. Screenplay has been written by David Leslie Johnson ("The Conjuring 2"), and is set in the fantasy world of the "Forgotten Realms."

Warner Bros.' Greg Silverman says in a report from Screen Crush, "We are so excited about bringing the world of Dungeons & Dragons to life on the big screen. This is far and away the most well-known brand in fantasy, which is the genre that drives the most passionate film followings."

True enough, with movies like the award-winning "The Lord of the Rings," fantasy movies have taken the lead — thanks to the massive developments in CGI. And with a world as vast as D&Ds', one can barely expect what could possibly happen.

Screen Crush also reports that the D&D movie that was shown in 2000 was "horrible." A review says that the "[Dungeons & Dragons 2000] movie has a cheap look... Despite the presence of talented actors, the performances are really bad..."

"This series doesn't tell a story on its own," says Screen Crush article writer Jacob Hall. Players are the ones who build characters, and practically do whatever they can in the fantasy world they are immersed in. "It's your story," he adds.

"That first movie may have worked around a table, where everyone was invested. There's a reason people aren't interested in hearing about your dreams and it's the same reason why most people don't want to hear abut your RPG session," says Hall.

However, though it is true that movie watchers aren't able to "direct" the lives of characters, a movie is still a movie, and the makers of the new D&D movie promise delight to watchers.

"D&D has endless creative possibilities, giving our filmmakers immense opportunities to delight and thrill both fans and moviegoers new to the property," Silverman adds.

"We are thrilled that this beloved property can finally make its way to the big screen after 20 years, and that it can be realized by Warner Bros., which has been responsible for the biggest fantasy franchises over the past two decades," said Solomon of Sweetpea Entertainment, reported by Variety.

No cast or director has been announced yet.
