Sifu live-action movie in the works from John Wick creator
The 2022 inꦺdie darling is jumpinꦐg to the big screen

The 2022 martial arts 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:indie game Sifu is being adapted for ♎the big screen by John Wick creator Derek Kolstad.
As reported by , Ko🎶lstad's production company, Story Kitchen, nabbed the right𝓰s to adapt Sifu after a "competitive pursuit." It isn't clear what other companies were interested in the project, but we know Kolstad himself is adapting the script.
Kolstad, best known for creating the John Wick series, is also hard at work adapting the classic beat-'em-up video game series Streets of Rage for the big screen. The 🌺adaptation was recently sc🐠ooped up by Lionsgate.
Sifu tells a classic martial arts story set in modern-day China, based around the child of a martial ar🐬ts school's sifu (master) who's determined to bring justice to those who responsible for their father's death. It's unclear how closely the live-action movie will stick to the events told in the game.
The very video-gamey twist to the story is that every time the hero dies, they're resurrected thanks to a magical talisman, but each ti⛦me they're brought back to life, they re-enter the world older, until eventually they run out of lives and their mission comes to an end. If you manage to make it to the end before running out of lives, then you'll get to see the completion of the story.
That seems like something Sifu developer Sloclap added as ♓a way to explain the player character coming back after being killed, and it also add stakes to the gameplay. It'll be interesting to see whether that element is something Kolstad and Story Kitchen are keen to incorporate into the movie, or if they'll just scrap 𝓰it and stick with adapting the basic premise.
Only time will tell whether Sifu ultimately joins the ranks of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best video game movies ever, but it's looking pretty good on paper so far.

I got my big break here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western r💞egional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
