Chris Pine might do a Dungeons & Dragons movie. The Star Trek and Wonder Woman 1984 star is reportedly in talks to be a part of a big-budget adaptation of the fantasy role-playing game. Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley, who directed the 2018 action-comedy film Game Night starring Jason Bateman and Rachel McAdams, are writing and directing Dungeons & Dragons. Paramount Pictures and Hasbro-owned eOne — Hasbro is the rights holder for Dungeons & Dragons — are producing the film, with the latter distributing it in the UK and Canada, and the former doing so everywhere else.

Spider-Man: Homecoming. It now seems to be moving forward.

This isn't the first movie adaptation of Dungeons & Dragons. Justin Whalin, Marlon Wayans, and Jeremy Irons were involved with Dungeons & Dragons (2000), which turned out to be a critical and commercial dud. Two sequels followed nonetheless, in Dungeons & Dragons: Wrath of the Dragon God (2005) and Dungeons & Dragons 3: The Book of Vile Darkness (2012). But they didn't involve any of the original actors (save Bruce Payne in Wrath of the Dragon God), and didn't even make it to theatres properly (Wrath of the Dragon God) or at all (Book of Vile Darkness).

Game of Thrones, spent all eight of its seasons.

Dungeons & Dragons is slated to open May 27, 2022 in cinemas worldwide.
