Just Cause confirmed to be adapted into a movie by John Wick: Chapter 11

In recent years, more and more games have been adapted or are being adapted into film and television works. In addition to the recently hotly debated "The Last of Us Part II", another game is confirmed to be adapted into a movie, that is the open world game "Just Cause". According to foreign media reports, the film adapted from the game has found a director and has begun production.

According to Deadline, Michael Dowse, the director of last year's action comedy "Uber Crisis", has been confirmed to be in charge of the film version of "Just Cause". The film is currently co-produced by Constantin Film and Prime Universe, and the script is written by Derek Kolstad, the screenwriter of the "John Wick" trilogy.

According to reports, early details of the Just Cause movie version indicate that the movie will be very close to the game setting, and the protagonist will still be Rico Rodriguez (but the actor has not yet been confirmed). According to reports, the movie tells the story of Rico's "anti-racism mission to stop the mercenary organization Black Hand". Therefore, the game should have chosen the latest Just Cause 4 in the series as the story background.

Just Cause was released in 2006. From the first game in the series, it has had standard parachutes, large open worlds, explosions, grappling hooks and other iconic designs. However, the game's reputation has declined since the third game in the series. Although more and more game-adapted movies are commercially successful, such as Nintendo's Detective Pikachu or Sega's Sonic, it remains to be seen whether Just Cause, a game with little fame and story background, can attract the attention of fans.
